This 2-hour workshop provides practical tools and methodologies for building sustainable, regenerative communities through a more-than-human lens. This systemic multispecies perspective recognizes that communities exist within living ecosystems made up of soils, waters, plants, animals, and people.

About the event

Many intentional communities share a commitment to sustainability. But turning those values into real systems that support daily life — for both people and the surrounding ecosystem — can be complex.

This workshop explores sustainability through a more-than-human lens, recognizing that communities exist within living ecosystems made up of soils, waters, plants, animals, and people. These forms of life are not just resources for human use, they are living participants in the places we inhabit.

Together, we’ll explore how ecological relationships, local knowledge, and place-based awareness can guide the design of resilient community systems. Participants will learn practical tools and methodologies for understanding their landscape and developing regenerative practices that support the whole ecosystem.

In this session, you’ll learn about:

  • Approaches for envisioning place-based sustainability
  • How multispecies perspectives can shape and inform community systems
  • Practical tools and methodologies for incorporating ecological relationships into community planning and decision making
