Please let us know what additional support you need to help make it happen.

Is an expression of interest confirmation that I will have to run this event?

No. The expression of interest is an application to the Climate Action Week Sydney organising team to participate in some way in this event.

Once your submission has been assessed you will hear back from the organisers regarding your application to be involved.

We're open to all types of events, but we do want to ensure this initiative stays focused on our mission of climate action and accessible to the whole ecosystem.

-May incite danger or violence
-Could portray climate action in a negative light

Can I change my event description and details after submitting an expression of interest prior to the event going live on the Climate Action Week Sydney page?

Yes, you can. After an event is approved you will be given admin rights to edit the details of the event on your event registration page. You'll have a chance to edit the event page, customise your event further, and make any required changes.

We do, however, ask that the nature of the event's concept stays true to the original intent otherwise the Climate Action Week Sydney team reserve the right to remove your event from the program.

Who can host an official Climate Action Week Sydney event?

Any individual or organisation can host an event. Everyone has a role to play in climate action.

How much information will I need to gather prior to submitting an idea for an event?
