Our next narrm ngarrgu | Melbourne Knowledge Week panelist is Dr Jonathan Daly, Manager of Urban Design & Heritage at City of Greater Geelong With extensive international experience in urban design and planning, we can’t wait to hear what he has to say about decision making in cities mkw.melbourne.vic.gov.au/event/cities-p…

Our panel discussion narrm ngarrgu | Melbourne Knowledge Week has started. We’re asking our panellists ‘Where does knowledge about our cities sit?’ #mkw22 #citiespeoplelove #melbourne

Dr Jonathan Daly from City of Greater Geelong says “engaging with difference is not supposed to be easy, it’s difficult. But what we tend to do is avoid that difficulty, rather than see it as a productive way to engage with the community to understand an issue.” narrm ngarrgu | Melbourne Knowledge Week #mkw22
