Conference Postponed to mid 2012

The conference committee of 'Communities for Sustainable Futures: A Dialogue' has considered the challenges presented by the current economic climate and taken the decision to postpone the event to mid-2012.

The tough economic climate has been compounded by the on-going effect of natural disasters across Australia. As a result, delegate decisions on whether to attend events such as this are slow or delayed. This puts significant risks on event organisers. The decision to postpone the event to 2012 is necessary given the not-for-profit nature of the organisers.

Feedback on the program content, speakers and topic arrangement has been strong and positive. However, more breathing space is needed for individuals, businesses and government to recover sufficiently for support to be restored for such events.

Please accept our sincere thanks for considering participation in the event. We trust you will understand the sensible and pragmatic basis of this decision.

As soon as new dates are set, we hope that we can resume a dialogue with you to deliver an exciting event with your involvement.

Regards

Michael Donovan
