Ryan candidates forum: Nature protection and climate action

Tuesday 22 April 2025
05:30pm - 08:00pm
Botanic Gardens auditorium, Mount Coot-Tha
152 Mount Coot-Tha Rd, Mount Coot-Tha, QLD 4066, Australia
Get directions

Join ACF,  Queensland Conservation Council, Parents for Climate Action, Australian Youth Climate Coalition and Solar Citizens at the Ryan candidates forum to get a sense of the strengths and weaknesses of your election candidates and their nature and climate policies.  

Which Ryan candidates will reform our broken nature laws to stop the bulldozing of our bush and protect our threatened plants and animals? Which candidate has the best policy to champion renewables to slash climate pollution and power bills now and reject the nuclear fantasy? 

Get all the answers at the Ryan candidates forum! 

There is nothing quite like seeing candidates on stage answering the hard questions from the community.

Join us at the Botanic Gardens auditorium from 5:30pm for a free BBQ before we kick off the forum around 6pm with an intergenerational panel discussion with community members from environmental groups working in Ryan before we hear from candidates.

Seats are limited so book your seat (or seats!) now by RSVPing. 

Candidate forums are a unique can’t-miss experience and one of the best ways to inform your vote. 

They’re also one of the most powerful opportunities to show politicians just how much the community cares about a particular issue. Hundreds of ACF supporters attended forums with their local politicians last year to raise the profile of and demand for nature law reform. The Ryan candidate forum is our chance to keep growing that momentum! 

Before this election, let’s get the ear of our candidates, let’s show up to show them that the community they want to represent demands urgent action to stop extinctions and create a safe future for our communities. 

These forums are also great spaces to meet like-minded community members, and we’ll have time for you to connect both before and after the formal proceedings, with stalls for local climate and nature groups!  

We hope to see you there.
