Wao Aotearoa has announced that Paul Hawken and Damon Gameau, internationally renowned climate action leaders, will present at the fifth annual Wao climate action summit, alongside other changemakers this October. The acquisition comes as the charitable trust celebrates five years of education and change in the climate action space. Hawken, a notable figure in the regenerative thinking sphere, is also a best-selling author known for ‘Project Drawdown’ and ‘The Regeneration Project’, a global collaborative resource that showcases tangible ways we can reverse global warming. Thanks to the support of Lake Wanaka Tourism, Gameau, documentary filmmaker and director of That Sugar Film, Regenerating Australia and 2040,
will present a discussion looking at the world through the eyes of our future selves. Have we made the world a better place to live? What did we do as a community to make a difference? Are we existing in a future we can be proud of? Using film as a medium to amplify the message, Gameau explores how we can unlock creative solutions to our current climate and biodiversity crisis from the ground up, and then implement those ideas in today’s world. Gameau and Hawken will be part of a strong line-up of korero (talks), films, workshops and tours focused on mainstreaming sustainability and fostering diversity. The Wao summit will run from 25 to 30 October and will be held over six days in Queenstown and Wanaka. Early bird tickets are on sale now!
