University of New England Peace Studies, coordinator of the Master of Environmental Advocacy degree, presents a public forum on coal seam gas.

We hope that a range of views will be presented, with the aim of finding some common ground. Questions from the
floor will be possible. The forum will be followed at 1pm by the first film (The Sky is Pink) in the Nonviolence Film Festival (Arts Lecture Theatre 2).

Speakers:

Tony Windsor | independent Member of the Australian House of Representatives
