Kooyong Candidates Forum 2025
Location: Hawthorn Arts Centre, 360 Burwood Rd, Hawthorn
Which Kooyong candidates will help us save money on energy bills by supporting rooftop solar and household electrification and work to secure a clean, sustainable future? Which candidate has the best policies to ensure that Australia benefits as the world decarbonises? The energy transition offers significant opportunities to secure good quality jobs, clean manufacturing and green exports. Who has the policies to best grasp these opportunities and ensure a safer climate future for our kids?
Join us at the Hawthorn Arts Centre on Wednesday 2nd April, at 7:00pm for a 7.30 start. Listen to the candidates, ask them questions and inform your vote! The following candidates are attending: Jackie Carter (Greens); Clive Crosby (Labor); Amelia Hamer (Liberal) and Dr Monique Ryan MP (Independent).
Too often our candidates are no more than names on a ballot paper. This forum offers the opportunity for you to get a sense of the strengths and weaknesses of the candidates and their climate policies. There is nothing quite like seeing them on stage answering the hard questions.
The forum will be moderated by Victoria McKenzie-McHarg, CEO at Women’s Environmental Leadership Australia.
