Earth Day: learning from indigenous peoples

Join us virtually to celebrate Earth Day 2021 by tuning into this exciting lunch time talk with biologist, Marie Kvarnström, who has done extensive research and work with indigenous and local communities about traditional knowledge on sustainable ways of living, climate and biodiversity.

We will have a conversation about the urgent need for societal transformation, shift of our deeper values related to the world around us and how we can learn together with indigenous and local communities. She will also talk about the concept of Good Living – Buen Vivir in Spanish – and what this might mean for us.

The event is co-hosted by The 2022 Initiative Foundation and Climate Reality Europe.
