Forums on key issues

PACIA arranges special forums on key issues to discuss, resolve and present facts.  Often these forums involve government representatives covering specific regulations, legislation or programs.

The forums are part of PACIA's Carbon Solutions Program which is a key component of PACIA's Sustainability Leadership Framework and supported through PACIA's Sustainability Covenant with EPA Victoria. For more information on the Sustainability Leadership Framework click here.

Presentations from recent forums are available further down this page. To find out more about past Forums, or to participate, sponsor or partner forthcoming sessions please contact PACIA on 03 9429 0670.
