Slide 1

I recently had the opportunity to explore the Earth-Centred Futures 2024 course offered by the Australian Earth Laws Alliance, and I must say it was truly fantastic. This comprehensive program delves deep into Earth-centred thinking and governance, covering a wide array of topics such as Earth jurisprudence, interconnectedness, Indigenous philosophies, Earth-centred law, economics, and politics. The course, facilitated by Dr. Michelle Maloney and a lineup of expert guest speakers, provides valuable insights that empower participants to apply their learning to real-world scenarios. I strongly recommend the Earth-Centred Futures 2024 course to individuals from all backgrounds who wish to make a positive impact on our global community. This course is perfect for those seeking to deepen their understanding of Earth-centered governance and contribute to a sustainable future.

Earth Centred Futures Course 2024

Wonderful course. If you want to find out more about the rights of nature and earth-centred law, this is it! Michelle and her team have organised a world-class group of speakers with topics ranging from Earth-centred law and governance, systems change and futures thinking, to indigenous perspectives, the science of interconnectedness, earth-centred economics and the politics of looking after our Earth. The wealth of reading recommendations and resources provided allow you to delve deeper. Practical workshops and extra tutorials allow you to have an experiential way of learning. Definite 10 out of 10.
