Ecosystem Restoration Design Summit
The Ecosystem Restoration Design course has been a special programme for Gaia Education and the Ecosystem Restoration Camps. Now we are offering all participants, past and present, the unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the Ecosystem Restoration World by joining facilitators, presenters, and alumni at our online ERD Summit
Join us for five days fully packed with interviews, presentations and Q&A with truly hands-on change-makers and learn:
- How to determine whether an ecosystem requires restoration
- What steps are needed to restore an ecosystem
- How to engage community
- How to fund a restoration project
- Indigenous wisdom for ecosystems restoration
- If cities can be restored
- How to design for resilience and disasters
- How to learn and engage further
Presenters include a wide array of restoration experts and activists representing diverse ecosystems and communities from around the world. The summit will be hosted by our Ecosystems Restoration Design facilitators, all experienced in permaculture, community resilience and design.
