Part 2: Sites of Experimentation
Wednesday 7th May, 5 - 6:30 PM CEST

With Molemo Moiloa, Jocelyn Imani & Ameyali Ramos,
Moderated by Dr. Carolyn Finney

Borrowing its title from a phrase by Bayo Akomolafe, our second conversation will move to territories namely in ‘breakdown’ to give space to projects, communities and practices that continue their work in times that feel like the end of the/their world. This panel will invite both conservation practitioners, artists and activists who, through different methodologies, approaches, and languages, actively work from the ruins of “stability” to continue nourishing radically different imaginaries and cosmologies of how we relate to the earth and with both the human and more than human world.

Part 1: When Things Fall Apart
Wednesday 16th April, 5 - 6:30 PM CEST

With Pat McCabe, Rachel Ikemeh & Neema P. Broome,
Moderated by Dr. Carolyn Finney

Join me (virtually) “for our first in-conversation dialogue, the Conservation Futures Dialogues bring leading conservation practitioners and thinkers to engage with us in a discussion about the prospected futures of conservation practices and environmental action during a time of social, economic, political, cultural and ecological collapse. How can we imagine continuing to sustain communities and practitioners at the frontline of conservation at a time when things seem to be falling apart? How do different actors engage with this time of crisis and transformation of the political horizon we are embedded in?”
