Create a Cleaner Australia With Our Visionary Environmental Speakers

Get involved in the biggest ever Clean Up Australia Day this Sunday 2nd March 2025. Celebrating 35 years since being founded by self-described average Australian Ian Kiernan, the day has now grown to become the largest community-based environmental action day in the country. It’s a time for businesses, schools and every-day Aussies to pull up their sleeves and do their bit cleaning up our environment. 

While small acts like picking up rubbish are important, Clean Up Australia Day is a great time to also think about the bigger picture. Learn how we can all make a difference as individuals and decision-makers in businesses and organisations with guidance from some of the leading thinkers and industry leaders in sustainability and environmental protection. 

We’re proud to have some of these individuals on board as ICMI speakers, ready to guide your audience towards impactful environmental action.
