    No One Left Behind - WOMADelaide 2026

    How can Australia navigate its way to a low-carbon future in a way that builds a more inclusive economy and just society? The challenge is ensuring fairness so that workers, communities and everyday lives are supported through change, not sacrificed to it. Sharan Burrow, Karrina Nolan and Rebecca Huntley join Tory Shepherd to explore what a just transition really means and how we can seize the chance to make it fair for all.   WOMADelaide 2026 The Planet Talks Generously supported by Claire Pfister.
