Ecosystem Restoration and Agroecology through Online Learning

The UN reports that the only way we can meet the global target of 1 billion restored hectares in the next eight years and avoid ecosystem collapse is to support people across the world to engage in localised ecosystem restoration. Join this lunchtime session and explore how we can leverage online learning to support a peer-driven, participatory global ecosystem restoration movement. We will hear from the sister founders of soon-to-be launched Earthed, a nature skills platform for a global community learning to grow, together with two of the platform teachers, Vandana Shiva and Charles Dowding. The conversation will discuss the role of farming in biodiversity and ecosystem restoration, access to education, contextual expertise, communication, reaching new audiences, and diversifying the movement for change.
