Bringing a Nature Focus Into Your Work (YHA Outdoor Citizens x ATE Resilient Communities Series)
Explore what it means to bring a nature focus in to your work. We will look at some language being used around nature - like nature connection, and nature recovery - and what that means. We will look at the benefits of bringing a nature focus into your work, as well as some of the challenges it might present. The session will include lots of practical examples and insights from a panel of community groups who are working with a nature focus, and there will be an opportunity for Q&A.

Radical Rest for Leaders and Changemakers (YHA Outdoor Citizens x ATE Resilient Communities Series)
Join nature writer and founder of Peaks of Colour, Evie Muir for an experiential and experimental embodied nature writing workshop. Through playful, sensory interactions and prompts developed from Evie’s debut book 'Radical Rest', we will explore how we can move towards resilience in our organising and movement practices. In this workshop we will apply Black Feminist, abolitionist and nature allied praxis to reimagine our relationship with rest, capacity and togetherness in service of collective liberation.
