About this Event
What does regeneration mean — and how does its meaning shift across cultures, traditions, and institutions?
Join us for a shared discovery session hosted by Dr Tuukka Toivonen in conversation with Yasuhiro Kobayashi a founder of Ecological Memes: A Japan-based cross-disciplinary collective of researchers and practitioners that explore emergent modes of human-nature inter-relationality.
The session takes the format of a lightly structured dialogue (with plenty of opportunities for collective discussion) to allow for novel distinctions and observations to arise.
The purpose of this discussion is to begin to identify and contrast the ways in which regeneration (and related terms such as regenerative design) is being approached within the Japanese and European contexts.
We will pay attention to the different meanings of regeneration, reasons for its adoption, how it is being linked to pre-existing cultures and economic institutions...
