Connecting with nature: for sustainability

What’s on offer?

This half day will include several talks with Q&A, all held online. You are free to drop in to any of the talks that interest you.

What’s it about?

Connecting with nature and seeking to live a sustainable lifestyle often go hand in hand, but both can mean different things to different people. We’ll discover what social science research tells us about the sustainable choices people make throughout their life, including food and drink, travel and ethical consumerism. Set against the backdrop of COP26, this event will also explore how the choices we make could address the climate and ecological crises, and how Bournemouth University targets and supports sustainability.

Who’s leading the event?

Dr Angela Turner-Wilson, with research colleagues from Bournemouth University, as well as representatives from nature and heritage organisations.
