Great to be with PIA today at the 2022 Planning Congress. Sharing a stage with Maimunah Mohd Sharif as a keynote speaker talking opportunity - not crisis, leadership and the 2030 SDG agenda. Thanks for having me! #PIACongress22

Last Monday, on my 21st birthday, I was officially sworn in as Deputy Mayor of the Huon Valley Council by completing my Declaration of Office. I look forward to representing the constituents that trusted me with this position and also bringing a new perspective to the Council.

It’s great being back at ADSW in the United Arab Emirates, being on the big screen at the Opening Ceremony and having a big reflection on my career with the Zayed Sustainability Prize, 6 years on from when I was on this stage accepting an award that changed my life.

Today I had the great pleasure to meet with the youngest US Congressmen Maxwell Alejandro Frost who grew as an organiser from the March For Our Lives movement. It is inspiring to see other young elected members around the world who are so in touch with connecting the ‘WHY’ to politics. ✊✊
