Decolonial Ecofeminism - Sacrifice Zones Across the Globe and Creating Alternatives (Living Utopia)

Rebecca Bonechi & Klara Farruku

Language: EN (live translation to DE / IT)

A moment of reflection on decolonial ecofeminism. This workshop is divided into two parts, beginning with a theoretical exploration of sacrifice zones in Latin America and Southern Italy (linking geographical points across the globe) with a focus on extractivism and the need to overcome the western environmental rationality based on the natural / cultural divide. The second part of the workshop will introduces a moment of situated practice through an imaginative engagement with the local environment, as a practice to challenge our epistemology. The objective is to create moments of collective reflection on our understanding of reality, planting the seeds of an alternative approach to the dominant discourse.
