Kerri ní Dochartaigh writes - "We are living in swiftly changing, wildly unsettled times. Many of those who are making the decisions that have got us into this position would have us believe that there is no other way than the path we have been placed upon. A path that is resulting in climate emergency, biodiversity loss, eco grief and general breakdown of communities both humans and more than human. The thing is though, we know there is another way. We know the path we should be on—one that honours and respects all life; that encourages one-another-ness; that listens to the land and all her creatures; one that holds, at its core, the truth that all flourishing is mutual."    


Kerri continues .. "It is my honour and joy, as writer-in-residence for Celt and The Woodland League, to invite you to a conversation with Eoghan Daltun. Eoghan is one of the lead creatives in Ireland who is raising his voice on behalf of the living earth. Now, more than ever, we need to use our creative fires to forge a pathway towards freedom, equality and protection for all we share this earth with. There is still so much for us to hold dear, to honour, to love. Let’s lay the foundations for a new pathway together.’ 

Join us on March 20th for World Rewinding Day and be a part of this vital conversation on Rewilding for the times we are in.

The CELT Writer in Residence programme is part of the IEN funded Writing the Land - The Great Forest of Aughty creative collaborative project, with a focus on nature protection and restoration, and engaging environmental and forest restoration organisations and local communities in the Eachtgha - Slieve Aughty area. 

The residency aims to honor, map, reconnect and restore our relations to the Great Forest of Aughty. 

Eoghan Daltun is a sculpture conservator, a High Nature Value farmer and, above all, a rewilder. Originally from Dublin, since 2009 he has lived with his two sons, Liam and Seánie, on their 73-acre farm near Eyeries on the Beara Peninsula, West Cork. He
is author of the best-selling and award-winning book ‘An Irish Atlantic Rainforest: A Personal Journey into the Magic of Rewilding’, published September 2022, as well as 'The Magic Of an Irish Rainforest', published in 2024.

Kerri ní Dochartaigh is a mother, writer, holder and grower. She is moved by the way we tend and attend: to ourselves; to one another; to the living world. She has written for The Guardian, BBC, RTE, The Irish Times and others. She mentors and teaches worldwide.
Her work currently explores ideas of one-anotherness, interconnectedness and ecologies of care. Her first book, Thin Places, was published by Canongate in Spring 2021, for which she was awarded the Butler Literary Award 2022, and highly commended for the Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing 2021.
Cacophony of Bone was published by Canongate in May 2023 and was longlisted for the Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing 2023. 
She lives in the west of Ireland with her family.

Both authors’ books will be available for sale at the event afterwards.
