Beyond Zero Emissions Discussion - Climate Change, Farming & Food Security Policy - An Indonesian Perspective

Rita Widiadana is Senior Journalist and Editor at Indonesia's 'The Jakarta Post' and has over 20 years experience covering issues such as agriculture, forestry, biodiversity and climate change. Rita covered The Ministerial Conference on Biodiversity, Food Security and Climate Change in Bali in 2011 which brought together experts from 127 countries.
She will share how Indonesians cope with rocketing food prices, climate change and why the government struggles to create a pro-farming policy and effective food security policy.

Rita will join us via Skype video conference.

Thank you to the University of Melbourne Energy Research Institute and Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute, our Zero Carbon Australia project partners for joining us in bringing you this event.
