Public Seminar: Recasting Australian Cities to meet the Challenges of Climate Change Prof. Robert John Adams AM, Director Design and Urban Environment, City of Melbourne Wednesday 28 May, 5.30pm, Turner Theatre, Botany Building, Parkville In this presentation Professor Adams will investigate a new role for the Australian city, a role where urbanity meets suburbia in a meaningful partnership to produce a sustainable, liveable and economically viable future. Accepting and working to offset climate change may well produce a renaissance for our cities – potentially a positive rather than negative result. Professor Adams has over 36 years experience as a practising architect and urban designer. As Director Design and urban Environment for the City of Melbourne he has produced a prolonged and consistent output of design-research based urban projects and strategies, worthy of over 100 state and national awards for excellence. Presented by the Community and Industry Advisory Board of the Office for Environmental Programs. Entry is free and refreshments will be served following the lecture. Click here to reserve a seat. |
