Hosted by the Western Cape Chamber of Commerce in partnership with Aurukun Shire Council, Mapoon Aboriginal Shire Council, Napranum Aboriginal Shire Council, the Weipa Town Authority, James Cook University, the Torres and Cape Indigenous Council Alliance, Western Cape Communities Trust and Rio Tinto.
The Western Cape Futures Symposium was conceived from the need to create a vision and plan for a sustainable future for the region.
This region presents many opportunities for sustainable growth and development in many areas, which the communities and its residents are keen to explore. By working together with Government and Industry, we can forge a path that leads to economic diversity and sustainability, to ensure that the next generations have a bright and prosperous future on the Western Cape.
The Futures Symposium provides an opportunity to shine a spotlight on our region, and explore the opportunities, potential and barriers to regional development in the Western Cape, by connecting Innovators, Industry Leaders, Government, Traditional Owners, Local Business and Community. It will also focus on some key issues impacting our region and it will explore the options around transitioning towards a more diverse and sustainable economy, enabling new industry and investment into the region.
