Coming up...
6-7pm | Wednesday 18 January 2023
We are living with climate breakdown, nature is being driven to extinction, and waste is out of control, across Aotearoa and overseas. Communities are calling for action, yet our legal system is fundamentally flawed and not able to respond to the climate and biodiversity crises.
Teall Crossen will lead a discussion on what law reform is needed to advance climate justice, protect and restore nature and get rid of plastic waste.
Critically, we must look after people and uphold the Tino Rangatiratanga of hapū, whānau and iwi while making these important changes, or they won’t be enduring and they won't be right.
Teall Crossen is an Environmental Barrister - New Zealand & International Law.
