Tired of your same old routine? Want something interesting to say when co-workers ask how your week was? Join us for Think and Drink, a modern salon for ideas, hosted in casual environments. **Location:** Exact address provided via email **Topic:** *Is Singapore Climate-Proof? Heat, Flooding, and Global Cities* **Speaker:** Shabana Begum, Climate & Environment Correspondent, *The Straits Times* Climate change is already reshaping the world’s most ambitious cities.

Join Shabana Begum, climate and environment correspondent from *The Straits Times* as she draws from on-the-ground reporting to give us a picture of how heat, flooding, and climate risk are testing Singapore in real time. Ditch your phone, connect with other curious minds, and share a drink over big ideas in some of Singapore's coolest venues. **What to Expect** **6:30 PM** – Doors open. Grab food/drinks/tables. **7:00 PM** – Presentation begins **7:40 PM** – Q+A **8:00 PM** – Chat, mingle, one more drink? **8:30 PM** – Head home. See ya next time!

Food is one of the most meaningful ways to experience culture — and Ethiopian cuisine is rooted in community, tradition, and bold, layered flavors. Join the Global Food & Culture group as we gather at Enatye Ethiopian Restaurant to explore traditional dishes served on injera. If you’re open to sharing, we can create a few shared platters so everyone can sample a variety of dishes — but individual ordering is perfectly fine too. Enatye is a small restaurant and does not make reservations so they recommended the 2-4 pm time frame. We’re initially capping this at 12 guests to keep the experience comfortable and conversational. If interest is strong and the restaurant can accommodate, we may open additional spots. The good news is that they will bill each of us separately! Come hungry. Come curious. And come ready to connect around the table.
