ACT Heritage Oration

The 2025 ACT Heritage Oration will be delivered by Bob Brown, prominent environmentalist, former politician and medical doctor. Bob will speak on the state of natural heritage protection in Australia.

As well as being a former politician and medical doctor, Bob Brown has been a life-long activist, protesting about environmental issues in Tasmania and elsewhere. In 1990, Bob established the Australian Bush Heritage Fund using his Goldman Environmental Prize and in 1992 was a driving force behind the formation of the Australian Greens.

Bob resigned from the Senate in June 2012 to establish the Bob Brown Foundation, a not for profit organisation dedicated to supporting environmental campaigns and green causes in Australia and our region. He is a published author and acclaimed photographer.
