The proceedings from the Queensland Climate Movement Summit, 2008.

In October, 2008, the Queensland Climate Movement Summit was attended by more than 60 activists, thinkers and citizens, with some 30 organisations represented and 26 workshops conducted on building and strengthening the climate movement in Queensland.

To those of you who participated, the event was a success only due to your input and contribution. Many most humble thank-yous for your involvement.

But, of course, the Summit was just the beginning.

As promised, the proceedings from the Summit have been edited, and the Proceedings of the Inaugural Queensland Climate Movement Summit are now available online at:

http://www.sixdegrees.org.au

The proceedings can be downloaded from:

You'll notice that the summit proceedings are available in both a PDF and in a webpage format. We hope that through the website's comment and forum capabilities, the summit proceedings can become a living document of our evolving strategies and campaigns addressing the climate crisis in Queensland.

Featured workshops include: 

• a history of direct action on coal,
  
• the St John's Wood Sustainability group's outreach strategy,
  
• a web-based collaboration review and
  
• the proposal for the Queensland Climate Safe Coalition.

Thanks once again for your participation in the Queensland Climate Movement Summit - it was a rich and powerful event. Looking forward to working with you in the coming months to build a resilient and effective climate movement across the state.

In solidarity and hope,
Clare, John, Brad and Shani
