About the event
How is ecology intertwined in our everyday lives? How can we listen to the lessons that our ancestral lands have to teach us? How can the language we use help us to form more conscious relationships with the land, and relationships that are centered on kinship and care? Join this conversation as the authors ruminate on what it means to use words, stories, and ancestral knowledge to navigate the eco-crisis and our climate-changed world.

This programme is co-presented by Singapore Writers Festival and Ethos Books. Singapore Writers Festival is organised by the Arts House Limited and commissioned by the National Arts Council.
