Photo of Kelly Fielding with the text below: "Keynote Speaker: Prof. Dr. Kelly Fielding's research focuses broadly on understanding the social and psychological determinants of environmental sustainability. She seeks to understand environmental decisions and behaviours and to develop communication and behaviour change strategies that can promote greater environmental sustainability. A key focus of her current research is on sustainable urban water management, specifically, how we can engage communitites with this issue."
