Online Lunchtime Talk – What does ‘nature’ mean to you? – followed by Walkshop in Stanmer Park
Lucy Dixon and I presented our work for the Mass Observation project on Wednesday, June 26, 1 – 2pm
Our talks combined celebrating the power of individual and collective connection to the more-than-human world. We both focused on the power of walking to heal connections to oneself, others and other beings. We highlighted the importance of individual reflection in driving collective action towards urgent climate challenges.
Attendees were also invited to an in-person ‘walkshop’ on July 13, 11am-12pm designed to bring the presentation themes to life. The walkshop experimented with design-led ideas to build a deeper understanding of how we can better connect to place, to strengthen connections between all beings and advocate for slower ways of living.
