2010 Critical Horizons Conference
Background
The Critical Horizons series examines emerging global trends and
how they might affect communities in the South West region of
Western Australia. It’s our way of helping South West residents to
plan and become better prepared for the future.
Critical Horizons events are a must for decision makers in all
areas, with past events exploring a diverse range of topical issues
including carbon futures, water, renewable energy and China.
A two-day conference is held triennially, while two one-day
seminars are held throughout the year at Bunbury’s Edith Cowan
University. Both types of events attract high-profile speakers from
around Australia and are considered important networking
opportunities for the region’s business and community leaders.
Conference details
The two-day conference will be held at Edith Cowan
University from 2-3 June 2010. Set to be a prestigious
event, it features big-name speakers including Jeff Kennett, Ian
Plimer and Peter Ellyard.
