DESCRIPTION:Climate change – adaptation – resilience – Sydney Law School has a Plan!\nIn-person event \nAn event to mark World Disaster Day 2022 \nBook launch and art exhibition: Professor Mary Crock\nHer Excellency the Honourable Margaret Beazley AC KC\, Governor of NSW\, will launch Professor Mary Crock’s (Sydney Law School) first illustrated children’s book and the exhibition of artwork that reflects and extends her academic work on disaster\, displacement and resilience. \nHosted by the Sydney Centre for International Law and the Australian Centre for Environmental Law\, join us to celebrate the publication ofÂ True Roo: Little Walla and the Bushfire. \nChildren are particularly welcome at this event. \nAbout the bookÂ True Roo: Little Walla and the Bushfire \nClimate change is making Australia increasingly prone to floods and wildfire disasters. In Little Walla a smart\, brave wallaroo wakes from a snooze one blistering summer day to find her Mama Roo gone – and bushfire smoke filling the valley. Critically\, Walla and her friends have a Fire Plan. The animals overcome barriers\, dogs and danger to find Mama Roo. By organizing\, co-operating and fire-bombing bird-power\, they find safety on the beach. \nLittle Walla’s story invites discussion about dangers such as bush-fires\, climate change and the benefits of planning for emergencies in a way that leaves no-one behind. \nFind out more about the book here. \nAbout the author \nProfessor Mary Crock is Professor of Public Law and Co-Director of the Sydney Centre for International Law at the University of Sydney.
