SUMMARY:ONLINE - Taking Care of our Rivers in the Face of Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:This winter’s extreme conditions\, which are likely to recur\, highlight two options for adaptation: keep building dikes and rebuilding as before\, or change course by learning from nature and adapting to the rhythms of our rivers. \nEnvironmental scientist and resource management expert Tom Kay will present evidence about how environmental management has exacerbated the risks of flooding and disasters and the impact of flood protection structures on our rivers and communities. Kay will propose solutions for managing land around rivers as our warming climate increases flood risk. \nMaking space for rivers and allowing them to reclaim parts of their natural floodplains in strategic locations is a natural solution to climate change that will protect communities from devastating floods while restoring the environment and improving local recreational opportunities. \nRegister here. \n  \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival 2025. See the full program here.

SUMMARY:Resilient\, Resourceful\, Regenerative Living Workshop - Motueka
DESCRIPTION:Come and find inspiration\, information\, and examples of how to live a more resilient\, resourceful\, and regenerative life.\nDiscover how permaculture ethics and principles can help to protect and provide for a more sustainable future.\nMeet a like-minded community of people who also hope for a safe\, abundant\, and happy life but may be unsure of how to start.\n\nThis permaculture workshop will explore\, with real-life examples\, how increasing our personal resilience\, resourcefulness\, and regenerative living can mitigate some of the impacts of climate change\, and potentially make a positive difference to our own personal\, local\, and global future. \nStroll around a permaculture property\, which includes a forest garden\, and be inspired by different permaculture systems while discussing resilient\, resourceful\, and regenerative ways of producing food and other necessities. Lynda will discuss specific ways in which participants can increase their own “Resilient\, Resourceful and Regenerative” (RRR) living. Check out the solar oven. \nThe goal of this afternoon is to share\, inspire\, and create a support team so that every participant feels inspired to increase and go a step further in their own “Resilient\, Resourceful and Regenerative” (RRR) journey. \nThe workshop is run by Lynda Hannah at a small scale\, organic\, permaculture farm in Motueka growing a biodiverse range of fruit and nuts\, berries\, vegetables\, herbs\, and flowers\, as well as selling free-range eggs and a range of organic herbs for teas and culinary uses. \nRegistration is essential and can be done following this Humanitix link \nThe venue is 3km from Motueka. Carpool can be organised on request. \nParticipation fees can be reduced for those able to give some help on the farm before the workshop (get in touch to agree on the conditions beforehand). \n  \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival 2025.

SUMMARY:Weaving Worlds Through the Spirit of the Commons - Motueka
DESCRIPTION:Weaving Worlds through the Spirit of the Commons: Perspectives from te ao Māori and European worlds \nJoin us at the Motueka Library for an exploration of the history of commons\, their enclosure and the potential to re-animate the ethos of the commons to create a more equitable\, regenerative future for Aotearoa New Zealand. This discussion with Aneika Young and Catherine Knight\, facilitated by Jack Santa Barbara\, will draw on ancestral wisdom and contemporary practice from both te ao Māori and European worlds\, shining light on the ‘spirit of the commons’. \nWhariki mai ngā aho o te whenua. (A whakatauki evoking the deep connection between people and the environment) \nAbout the speakers:  \nAneika Young is a specialist in Māori Resource Management and Kaupapa Māori research. Aneika is Te Ao Māori Advisor\, Te Papa Ao Tūroa o Aotearoa/The Nature Conservancy New Zealand. \nDr Catherine Knight is an award‑winning environmental historian and author of six books including New Zealand’s Rivers: An environmental history\, Beyond Manapouri: 50 years of environmental politics in New Zealand and Nature and Wellbeing in Aotearoa New Zealand.
