Human health and river health- How do they come together on the Cooks River? How is the health of the Cooks River and the health of the communities linked? What does it mean to have a healthy urban river and a healthy community?
The river is connects to the streets of our neighborhoods. The rainwater connects to the river to the bay. We connect to each other along the shared river path. How do we rethink these vital connections to green and ‘blue’ public space, to ensure a healthier city and river?
In this live panel discussion, we’ll be joined by Jennifer Newman, Dr Megan Sharkey from Better Streets, Kiran Kashyap from Regen Sydney and Dr Andrew Thomas from the Cooks River Alliance, to discuss the Cooks River, as an active transport corridor, animal habitat and public space.
