PROGRAMME

KAITIAKITANGA, TIAKI/ MANAAKI WHENUA WITHIN THE CREATIVE PROCESS, 10:20am

For Tangata Whenua the land, waterways, ocean and air are understood as living entities with which there is a respectful and reciprocal relationship established. This relational approach is tangible and connective, a personal, intimate view of people being no more or less than elements of the environment.

Creative Practitioners: Josephine Clarke,Olivia Blyth & Tanya White

Supported by: Dr Paola Trapani & Desna Whaanga-Schollum,

 

PERSUASION: THE ROLE OF ART, 11am by Janine Randerson

Contemporary artists who work with weather, or climate concerns,  often share digital data materials and fieldwork processes with meteorological scientists or climatologists, yet often art-science collaborations are more complex than the direct consciousness-raising or communication of scientific findings.  At a time of slowly escalating climate crisis, artists probe collective anxieties, internal political rifts and generate both playful and practical challenges to the legacy of human exceptionalism.

Janine Randerson and Amanda Yates currently working on the performance and exhibition programme for ‘Heat’ at Te Uru gallery in February 2017.

 

O TU KAPUA – WHAT THE CLOUDS SEE, 11:30am by Sue Jowsey & Gustavo Olivares

Artist collective F4 have collaborated with NIWA’s air quality scientists to produce O Tu Kapua – Personal Cloud. This multi-sensory, multi-media installation will arouse curious minds to learn about climate change science and their power to influence it. This project renders the invisible visible with a goal to elevate conscious observations of personal contributions and interactions with air.

 

LOST IN THE LANDSCAPE: SCALING UP PUBLIC ART, 1:30pm

Facilitated open discussion

ZERO WASTE 2040,

“TO BECOME THE MOST LIVEABLE CITY IN THE WORLD, AUCKLAND WILL AIM FOR THE LONG TERM, ASPIRATIONAL GOAL OF ZERO WASTE BY 2040, TURNING ITS WASTE INTO RESOURCES.” Waste Management and Minimisation Plan: Let’s get our rubbish sorted Auckland Council has developed the first Auckland-wide plan, aiming at an aspirational goal of Zero Waste, helping people to minimise their waste and create economic opportunities in doing so.

 

 

CURRENT CLIMATE CHANGE SCIENCE: DR JIM SALINGER, 2pm

TEMP is very delighted to confirm leading climate change scientist educator Dr Jim Salinger’s participation in TEMP Forum II

Jim has been involved for 40 years in research and analysis of climate change and variability and its impacts. In 2015 he was the Ernst Frohlich Fellow at CSIRO in Hobart, and in 2012 he was the Lorrey Lokey Visiting Professor, Woods Institute for the Environment, at Stanford University.

Jim has been involved in the research and analysis of climate change and its impacts for 40 years. As a leading climate researcher and teacher he has been a prolific communicator, receiving several awards and other honours for his work on climate change. He was a lead author on the chapter of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s 2007 assessment report that was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize the same year.

In 2015 Jim was the Ernst Frohlich Fellow at CSIRO in Hobart, and in 2012 he was the Lorrey Lokey Visiting Professor, Woods Institute for the Environment, at Stanford University. Until recently he was president of the World Meteorological Organization’s Commission for Agricultural Meteorology. From 1982 to 1992, he worked for the NZ Meteorological Service. From 1992 to 2009, he worked for the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research. He has since worked as an Honorary Research Associate in Climate Science in the School of Environment at the University of Auckland.

 

HOW TO MAKE A BETTER WORLD, DR NIKI HARRE, 3pm
We are equally excited to announce keynote speaker Dr Niki Harré.

Niki brings to the TEMP Forum II energy, extensive experience and specialised understanding about ‘How to Make a Better World’!

During her presentation Niki will share the latest research in applied social and community psychology to convey a range of strategies best suited to inspire individuals and communities to move towards sustainable lifestyle choices.

The following focused Q & A session will give an opportunity for TEMP project teams to ask questions that will help them identify methods, techniques and approaches they could incorporate in project design and delivery.
Niki is an Associate Professor in the School of Psychology at the University of Auckland. Her recent research projects have focused on sustainable communities and schools, positive youth development and political activism. In 2007 Niki edited, with Quentin Atkinson, the book Carbon Neutral by 2020: How New Zealanders Can Tackle Climate Change. In 2011 she released a second book, Psychology for a Better World: Strategies to Inspire Sustainability. It can be downloaded for free from www.psych.auckland.ac.nz/psychologyforabetterworld. She lives in Pt Chevalier, Auckland and has three children. She is a founding member of the Pt Chevalier Transition Town, cycles to work, learns the guitar from a musician who lives on her street, and has a large organic garden thanks to her husband.
