2023 was a trying year for those of us concerned about the state of the world. The outbreak of war in Gaza, the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, and the lack of international action on climate change have all been dispiriting.

But amidst the doom and gloom, there is still much to be hopeful about. In the next of our ‘Big Ideas in the Pub’ series, we will be joined by prolific Australian poet, playwright, essayist and reviewer, and human rights adviser, Angela Costi, who will share her insights on how collaborating and connecting with inspiring people and communities has given her the strength to continue along her own journey.

So, please, join us for dinner, in what promises to be a wonderful evening of conversation intended to revive our spirits.
