Small Steps: Biodiversity Panel Discussion & Workshop Sydney - Citizen COP 2026

From Biodiversity Loss to Action Does the loss of biodiversity and habitat feel like such a big problem that it’s out of our hands? Join us for an inspiring and interactive event exploring how small actions and collective voices can help reverse biodiversity loss. We’ll begin with a 45-minute Domino activity exploring the Great Barrier Reef. This fun and collaborative experience helps you discover the connections between biodiversity, ecosystems and human wellbeing, while exploring the challenges facing one of the world’s most iconic ecosystems. It’s a chance to learn, connect and share ideas with like-minded people. This will be followed by a panel discussion with community doers who are putting ideas into action. Hear inspiring stories of practical initiatives that anyone can contribute to, and discover how everyday people are making a difference for biodiversity and habitat in their communities. Come along to learn, connect and be inspired, and discover how your own voice and actions can contribute to positive change for nature. This is a public session by As We See It in collaboration with People For Nature.

Enabled by People For Nature, but intentionally independent and distributed, Citizen COP invites communities, organisations, schools, businesses, artists, and local groups across Australia to host their own events during the COP period. Rather than a single central event, Citizen COP is a nationwide network of conversations, workshops, and actions that bring global climate and nature discussions into local communities. It connects people to science, solutions, and each other, strengthening civic engagement and ensuring citizen voices contribute to Australia’s climate and nature conversations. https://www.peoplefornature.org.au/citizen-cop About People For Nature People For Nature is a volunteer-powered environmental charity empowering communities through climate and biodiversity education, citizen conservation, and science. We believe that when Australians understand and connect with nature, they’re more likely to protect it — safeguarding our climate, ecosystems, and well-being.
