We see the disconnection of human consciousness and cultural norms as a root cause of our collapsing social and ecological systems. The extractive logic that is driving breakdown is, at its core, a failure of relationship, meaning and perspective - of how human beings understand their place within the living world.
Embracing genuine stewardship of the Earth asks humans to live as spiritual beings. This requires us to Return to Earth and build Future Architectures: deepening practices of connection and wisdom through ritual, grief tending, celebration, rites of passage, and direct relationship with land and more-than-human life, as well as collectively imagining and embodying new futures through citizen engagement, speculative design, and movement building.
