Strategic session CSIRO Chile – results

23rd – 24th May, 2019 | Las Majadas de Pirque, Santiago, Chile

Meeting

Together with CSIRO Chile’s board members, business and social leaders, we had a dialogue in the light of the challenges that both Chile and Australia face, from their own territories and identities.

We met in a strategic session in Las Majadas de Pirque, to talk about the common challenges Chile and Australia face and how applied research can be the key to solve them.

We began the session by understanding our territory, our geography, our own place. Juan Carlos Tonko, leader of the Kawésqar indigenous community of Puerto Eden, transported us from his history to our present and future.

The conversation about our future and perspective through applied science was held by Dr. Peter Mayfield, Executive Director of Environment, Energy and Resources Area of CSIRO, the most important applied research organization in Australia and one of the 10 largest in the world.

Through Guillermo Holzmann’s vast experience as a political scientist, we were able to delve into the geopolitical reality of our region, what role we play in the global present and how the alliances made with Australia is a factor of change for both countries.

We also were able to present ideas and proposals coming from all attendants to Constanza Cea, Executive Director of Marca Chile, organisation that will lead the COP25 summit in Chile.

We appreciate your trust. Your collaboration. We count on you.
