No-one knows the needs of the community better than its own residents, and when they’re granted decision-making powers over local developments, their choices are made based on what’s best for each other, the wildlife and landscape.
Despite this, mainstream climate politics suffers from the under-representation of working class, Indigenous and Global South voices, and remains disproportionately influenced by middle and upper middle class individuals from the Global North – often with advanced professional credentials and/or formal work experience.
But why is it that certain forms of environmental knowledge are held in higher regard than others? And how can this be reconciled so that all forms of knowledge are valued equally? In other words, how can decision-making processes be democratised?
Join us for an online workshop that explores these issues in greater depth! We received so many expressions of interest that we’re running two sessions:
