Join us for an evening of insights and conversations that explore flow from multiple perspectives—ecological, cultural, social, and economic. This event brings together water managers, First Nations voices, scientists, and community leaders to unpack what flow truly means where the river meets the sea.
About the event
The concept of flow is central to life in the Coorong, Lower Lakes, and Murray Mouth (CLLMM) region. Water defines this place—its health, its culture, and its economy. Here, fresh water meets salt, rivers meet the sea, and ancient knowledge meets contemporary science.
