Western Australian sector meeting (co-hosted by Propel Youth Arts WA

Take one hour each month to reflect, discuss and help create change in PERTH. Join a community of ‘urban thinkers’ for a free forum exploring topics such as planning, development, sustainability and community. This is PERThour.

PERTHour is a discussion forum designed to broaden our perspectives on urban issues. Presenters talk for twenty minutes with oodles of time for questions. The program is specifically designed to be interactive, intimate and enjoyable with short presentations followed by questions & discussion time. Note that places are limited.

The first session begins THIS FRIDAY with special guest Charles Landry.
