ARRCC will be holding our AGM to review the calendar year Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2017, and touch base with our members and supporters. 

Thursday, May 3

7 pm Guest Speaker: Sukhi Kaur is a Sikh and a psychologist working for the Sydney Alliance project, Voices For Power, which is about building interest among CALD communities in renewable energy. Sukhi is working with South Asian communities, and is passionate about creating a safe climate future. She will reflect of what she has learned about working in faith-based Culturally And Linguistically Diverse communities on issues which tend to be regarded as "political".

The AGM proper starts at 7.30pm AEST

When: For those living in the greater Sydney region, you're very welcome to join us at 6 pm for a vego meal, then 7 pm for formalities, finishing at 8.30 (different for those joining via Zoom from other time zones)
