What are human rights and how does Australia’s performance stack up against its international human rights obligations?

Thursday 11 July, 2019
Warrren Yates

Warren will give the Australian election result a broader context, presenting evidence that progress towards decarbonisation of the world economy is gathering pace and may well be unstoppable.

Ironically, and certainly undeservedly, this will be to Australia’s advantage.

About the speaker

After an academic career in electrical engineering at University of Technology, Sydney and a post retirement stint in local government as an elected councillor on Mosman Council, Warren’s focus has evolved towards environmental activism.

In the absence of political leadership he feels compelled to join with likeminded individuals in grass roots actions to hasten the transition to a more sustainable economy. He is public officer and treasurer of Clean Energy for Eternity and a director of the social enterprise ClearSky Solar Investments Ltd.
