A View of Ecologies in Practice

This year CAL audiences are hearing from practitioners, researchers, curators and arts activists who work with ecological motivations. So far we have heard from speakers who encourage imaginative creative practice, and who challenge superficial institutional responses to the need to make changes that will support sustainable learning environments. Today our speakers will be discussing ecological practice in numerous art forms, and with interdisciplinary, collaborative connections.

As we are gathering our participatory audience today, I will share some reflections that I have observed, in developing the CAL programme of events for 2021-22. My intentions are to contribute the Centre’s resources and networking potential, to what can be seen as global activism for intervention in the ways that the world, peoples, animals and the atmosphere we share, have been treated.
