Speakers:
Kate Nicolazzo: Kateruns the Melbourne social change agency Let Me Be Frank - where she works to solve a range of climate and sustainability issues, including sustainability in apartments. Their 2024 High Life Expo sold out, attracting over 1,000 registrations, and proved there's a huge appetite among apartment residents for exactly this kind of support. That’s why Kate is getting ready to launch High Life Living as a new not-for-profit organisation that wants to see a future where no apartment resident is left behind in the transition to sustainable, climate-resilient living.
