In a fascinating fireside-style conversation, Graeme will share the inside story of the remarkable five-year journey from policy recommendations to legislative reform, culminating in Australia’s landmark environmental law changes enacted in November 2025. Few people are better placed to explain the challenges, setbacks, negotiations and persistence required to turn ambitious environmental policy into national legislation.

A bottle of Grange sets this wine raffle apart.  A genuinely special opportunity.

The Best Part?

Every dollar raised from the raffle and the luncheon itself goes directly to charity.
