Getting Salty
The Wollongong Let’s Get Salty Podcast brings together community, industry, university, government and environmental leaders to get the low down on how our local area is evolving, and how we can all contribute to a sustainable future.
We’ll discuss how to get the most out of daily life, community and business and how we can all make an impact, leading the country as a local example of transformation, innovation and change.
Why ‘Get Salty’ ? The Wollongong local government area is a beacon of industry set in a stunning natural coastal landscape. For us, getting ‘salty’ is about connecting with nature and each other to address the challenges facing our region and globe, inspiring a movement of proactive change towards a sustainable future. Join us for inspiring, positive and in-depth conversations as we explore how to transform Wollongong industry, community and lifestyles. So come on, Let’s Get Salty!
