Join us for a guided workshop focused on connecting urban citizens with multi-species ecosystems to create a greener future for all.About this Event
As some global cities implement urban rewilding methods, human-to-nature interaction remains inaccessible for many people living in urban environments.
With an opening discussion followed by a 90-minute workshop, social enterprise Nowadays On Earth will introduce the concept of ecosomatics — the relationship between the body, its sensations and systems with the more-than-human environment.
Focusing on city living, it will encourage people to imagine an alternative urban future by transforming unused spaces into green pockets of life for people, plants, and planet.
Participants will receive radical tools for guerrilla gardening, including low-tech mushroom-growing techniques and seed bomb starter kits.

About CAFx + SPACE10
The theme of this year’s Copenhagen Architecture Festival is Lifeform. Exploring the wild ideas of our time — from regenerative design to symbiotic co-creation and biomimetics — it aims to expand our understanding of landscapes, city planning, and the built environment in the age of natural crises.
In conjunction with CAFx, SPACE10 will be hosting a series of workshops, exhibitions, and talks that open a conversation and spark new ideas about relating more intimately to the world around us, seeing our buildings as habitats and our cities as ecosystems.
