franc.sydney 2022 is powered by Stormwater NSW and is all about challenging the rationality of current practices and perceptions of urban stormwater and its management. It is a community of individuals and organisations who are, in some way, connected to or effected by urban stormwater and are passionate about changing the way the industry operates to become more future-focused, resilient, adaptive and connected.
The stormwater industry has, for decades, tried to shift the balance between vested interests and the greater good, but it has become clear that it can’t do this alone. So franc.sydney 2022 brings together individuals from beyond stormwater to tackle this issue together. Our members include professionals, scientists, academics, researchers and advocates that recognise the need for change, the need to put the long-term prosperity of the health of our waterways, emissions and sustainable development above short-term political and financial interests. Most importantly, we bring these people together to help us all speak with one voice.
And it all begins by having ‘franc’ discussions.
This conference has a total of seventeen (17) guest speakers (up from the traditional four), and will include a range of new topics including:
- How to develop resilient communities.
- The relationship between the environment and human health.
- Finding ways to help protect our aquatic environment and conserve biodiversity; and
Conversations between scientists, planners, hydrologists, environmentalists and academics to ensure we are all on the ‘same page’ going forward.
Franc.Sydney has also moved to become a hybrid event giving everyone the opportunity to be a part of franc either in person or from the comfort of your own home. In-person and virtual registrations are exchangeable at the rate you paid (early bird, standard) if you are to change your mind closer to the date.
We would like to invite you to join us for the 2022 Stormwater Queensland Sustainability Summit.
The Summit program will include one day of plenary sessions, presentation of our annual awards and a fun social evening event. The Summit will feature a co-located trade exhibition, providing an excellent opportunity to learn about the latest in product innovation.
Stormwater Queensland has proven to be leaders in providing high quality professional development for urban water, through their annual conferences and technical events. The 2022 Summit will be a step forward from our usual content with greater focus on new ideas, panel discussions, current research and innovation to both inspire and enable our industry towards a sustainable future.
Who should attend?
The primary audience for this event includes industry professionals such as engineers, asset managers, researchers, landscape architects, sustainability managers, knowledge transfer specialists, policy development practitioners, politicians, and advisors from Government agencies, Non-government agencies, Consultants, Research and development organisations, Regional NRM Bodies and Industry.
