Description
Join the Sustainable Economies Research Group (SERG) to explore bioregionalism – an approach that sees humans as part of nature and local economies as symbiotic and co-evolving with living systems.
This event will explore how place based and bioregional thinking can help shape a fairer, greener and more resilient economy. Through a mix of expert talks and interactive workshops, participants will consider how local economies can work in balance with living systems.
The event is open to researchers, practitioners, policymakers, students and anyone with an interest in sustainability. We would be delighted if you could join us.
