Community Support and the Doughnut Economy

Kindred Spirits believes in thriving communities filled with healthy and fulfilled people.

Through partnerships with not-for-profits and other community-based groups, they believe that projects like ‘The Little Village Project’ and ‘Regen Gippsland’ will make life better for local people.

Shaun Malia, Kindred Spirits Executive Officer, will join us for what promises to be a thought-provoking discussion.

‘A life-long Gippslander, Shaun has worked closely with the community across the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland, first as an award-winning journalist and editor of the Latrobe Valley Express newspaper, before moving into the education and energy sectors and then the not-for-profit space.

Shaun has been the community’s point of contact in a world-first study that looked at the impact of the Hazelwood Mine Fire smoke event on the community of Morwell, led the Latrobe Health Assembly’s innovative Social Marketing Team and then joined AGL Energy as its Community Relations Manager in the Latrobe Valley’.
