Eco-Literacy Wendy Hopkins (March 1st, May 2nd, May 3rd, June 26th)
This course is structured with two days at the Augustine
Centre (March 1st & June 26th)and a two day retreat at Kangaroo Ground on
the Yarra River (Sunday and Monday May 2nd and 3rd)
In this unit we'll consciously inhabit and explore the Ecological...the
patterns, relationships and interconnectedness of ecology; our collective
home. We'll do this through observation, understanding and experiential
immersion, using our whole-body intelligences, eg intellectual, emotional,
sensory, kinesthetic. By focusing on a specific aspect of an Ecosystem, by
regularly visiting a place of your choice, and through workshops that'll
bring out our collective wisdom...we'll discover and uncover our own
eco-literacy...then explore how we'll live and act from this new place of
knowing.
Wendy Hopkins will draw on her explorations and experiences in eco-literacy,
group facilitation, social ecology, deep ecology, science and wonder (and of
course, being a human immersed in and part of nature!). And together we'll
draw on the experiences and wisdom of all participants, and the 'natural
world' around us.
