The Climate Collective’s interviews and webinars create engaging, solutions-driven conversations that break silos and accelerate climate action.

We bring together leaders, innovators, and changemakers from across sectors to explore risks, opportunities, and groundbreaking strategies shaping the future of climate and sustainability.

Rooted in collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and capacity-building, we deliver insights that connect disciplines, challenge norms, and spark real-world impact.

As a First Nations-founded initiative, we recognise the value of diverse perspectives—leveraging deep expertise, lived experience, and bold ideas to drive transformative change.

Insightful. Action-oriented. Future-focused. Our conversations cut through the noise to inspire the next wave of climate leadership.

Rob shares how his values as a person of faith and his lived experience as a mentor to young people shaped his vision for community-led climate action. We explore the barriers and opportunities in local organising, the rise of community energy co-ops, and how Collective Power is embedding equity at the centre of its mission — from solar panels for vulnerable families to scaling models of care-driven innovation.

This conversation is deeply human, quietly radical, and full of practical hope.

🟢 Topics covered:

  • What inspired the founding of Collective Power
  • Trust, agency, and place-based organising
  • Practical ways to include renters, apartment dwellers, and low-income households
  • Lessons learned from past ventures
  • A vision for scaling community co-ops across the country

📣 Follow Collective Power Boroondara or reach out to Rob if you’d like to support or learn from their model.
