The YouTube channel Ecological Reparation features the work of some of the confernence presenters listed below and many other academic researchers. The channel explores different approaches to remediating and repairing as well as claiming reparations for damaged more than human ecologies. How can ecological thinking and practice enable reparation? How can reparation for damages done be ecological?
Amidst the escalating degradation of environments and communities, addressing the threat of social-environmental destruction has become a fundamental challenge for creating and maintaining liveable worlds.
The conference brings together practices of mending damaged ecologies that exist precariously through various societal, environmental, material involvements and across diverse locations and geographies. We explore the reparative and insurgent capacity of mending ecologies to craft relations of care and sustenance of human and nonhuman communities.
