Robin-Griffiths Biennal Environmental History Lecture

Namadgi National Park to Gibralta Peak, near Canberra (Pi Klinjun, Adobe Stock)

The ANU Centre for Environmental History is pleased to announce the Robin-Griffiths Biennial Environmental History Lecture. This Biennial Lecture honours the Centre's founders, Emeritus Professors Libby Robin and Tom Griffiths, who have so generously fostered the field of environmental history and cultivated a community of scholars. We hope this biennial event will go a small way to recognising their enormous contribution to the field and to share new research in environmental history.

The inaugural Robin-Griffiths Lecture took place on Thursday 8 December 2022. Professor Katie Holmes (La Trobe) presented the lecture, titled 'About the Birds and the Trees: Reading Robin and Griffiths and writing environmental history'.
