Sunshine Coast Council is sponsoring a presentation from renowned community economics specialist Michael Schuman at Nambour on Tuesday 25 September.
Division 5 Councillor Jenny McKay said securing Michael Schuman as a guest presenter was a real coup for the Sunshine Coast.
Michael Shuman will offer specific suggestions for bringing life back into our local economies and take action to raise capital locally without recourse to rapacious banks.
“Transition Sunshine Coast has been the driver behind booking Michael Schuman who will be sharing his experience in cost-effective pathways for local investment,” Councillor McKay said.
“I’m looking forward to hearing him talk about investment practices that support local business and job creation opportunities.
“He’s a prolific speaker and has been presenting for more than 30 years. Michael will be presenting case studies from his direct involvement in regional economic development programs in America.
“It’s an excellent opportunity to hear about what has been happening in relation to community economics in America.”
**The presentation is on Tuesday 25 September from 6pm at the Big Pineapple, 28 Nambour Connection Rd Woombye, entry is $10 and concession $8. **
