This is a virtual event
Australia has just experienced a wave of civil disobedience by Extinction Rebellion blockading parliament in Canberra during budget week. With over ten arrests and two members spending a week in prison - things are so serious and it is time we all took radical action.
We all know that the disruption of nonviolent protest is minuscule compared with the disruption of natural disasters. We are in the midst of climate breakdown, and we have no time left to lose. In order to protect our loved ones, and all life, we must act with courage and participate in Mass Civil Disobedience to force the system to change.
Come along to this info session to
- meet those who took part in the actions in Canberra and were willing to go to jail to show how serious the climate crisis and our government failure is
- find out about Extinction Rebellion
- Ask questions
- And get involved.

This is the year that, together, we change the story. And - if it hasn't already started - it starts here, and it starts now.
We pay our respects to elders past and present and honour Australia's First Nations centuries-long battles to protect Country.
