Our AGM is a key event in our annual calendar where we meet with our membership to report on our progress in the last financial year. This is also an opportunity for our membership to voice their concerns or suggestions and become more involved by participating in the election for positions in the ASC Executive Committee.
If you are not able to attend the AGM, consider appointing a proxy to vote on your behalf. The AGM agenda will be sent out a week prior to the event.
We are proud to announce that our special speaker for the event will be Prof. David Karoly FAA, climate scientist and current member of the Climate Council.
David is an honorary professor in the School of Geography, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences and an honorary senior research fellow in Melbourne Climate Futures, having retired from CSIRO at the end of January 2022. He is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science. Currently a Councillor on the Climate Council, Australia, he is an internationally recognised expert on climate change and variability and a frequent media commentator on these issues.
At the AGM, Professor Karoly will share his experience communicating climate science to inform Australian policy.
