Online | Values, Culture, Spirituality and Ecosystem Restoration

In support of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration and global restoration efforts, the Center for Earth Ethics has hosted a series of high-level interventions and community-based dialogues. These events showcase the importance of incorporating values, culture and spirituality (VCS) in anchoring and achieving ecosystem restoration. The UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration has helped galvanize broad engagement in protecting, conserving and restoring the natural world. Its Flagship Initiatives have brought visibility and crucial support to major restoration projects.

This webinar will feature members of the UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration Advisory Board and delve into the multifaceted nature of restoration, emphasizing that it extends beyond the hectares restored. Crucially, it involves repairing the relationship between people and the land, water and air essential for life. The session will also examine methods for meaningfully engaging a community and the role of values, culture and spirituality in ensuring the success of restoration projects.
