RSA Oceania Events

RSA Oceania has entered into a reciprocal agreement with the Royal Society of NSW, whereby RSA Fellows can receive guest rates to participate in events. The Royal Society of NSW is the oldest learned society in the Southern Hemisphere, founded in 1821. It conducts expert lectures and presentations for the benefit of members and the general public — including monthly face-to-face and online gatherings, special events such as Ideas@theHouse in partnership with the Governor of New South Wales, and the annual Forum in partnership with Australia’s learned academies.

AELA is a not-for-profit organisation working to increase the understanding and practical implementation of Earth-centred governance, with a focus on systems change across law, economics, education, ethics and community participation in Australia. AELA has a vibrant programme of events and courses, which build understanding around an eco-centric or ‘life-centred’ culture. AELA works closely with First Nations Peoples in Australia to advance decolonial practice and greater understanding around Indigenous knowledge systems.

Over the past 5 years, we have collaborated extensively with the RSA’s Fellow-led Sustainability Network to learn and reflect on issues aligned to the RSA’s regenerative mission. In 2022, we convened a series on long-term thinking, inspired by Roman Krznaric’s book, The Good Ancestor. Currently, we are partnering on a long-term series called “Re-generating Our World”, exploring issues discussed in the ReGeneration Rising podcast.
