What the F@¢k are we doing about the fuel crisis? Part 1. Lessons from the Northern Rivers
Website
Description
Description This is the first in a series of nation-wide conversations aiming to support us find hope and build community resilience and connection in these uncertain times.
What the heck is happening?
Diesel prices nearly double, the national cabinet is convened, the Prime Minister says ‘don’t panic’, out-of-touch world-leaders make decisions that wreak havoc on the entire planet.
Some of us plant an extra garden bed, others don’t even have time to consider what the impacts might be.
We are in uncertain times, our normal lives are facing shocks not seen for decades.
Are you prepared? Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, excited, uncertain, avoidant, or something else?
What is happening will naturally trigger all sorts of emotions. But not all of the things we feel the urge to do will be helpful - for ourselves as individuals or for our communities.
In this conversation, grounded in the wisdom from lived-experience, we will:
meet others who might be feeling the same and try to make sense together
find local connections and network across the continent
learn how experiences of community recovery and resilience from the Northern Rivers Flood catastrophe of 2022 might be applied to current and future circumstances
participate - a chance to have your say
become more empowered through the process, with tangible next steps
be the adults in the room in a world gone mad, and start this serious and caring conversation.
