Addressing ideas of &#8216;care&#8217; in relation to a range of current issues, including the climate crisis, guarding green space, the future of farming and food security, caring for our collections and caring for people including our staff, volunteers and community.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/aalert\/the-network-2\/dr-eirini-saratsi\/\">Dr Eirini Saratsi<\/a><\/strong>, the lead PI of AALERT, will be giving a talk about future landscapes. Actions taken invariably have long term consequences on places and people, but how can land be valued, planned and managed to better reflect and accommodate the needs and involvement of local people? And what sort of positive future landscapes are envisaged to also respond to the complexities of climate change and biodiversity? Who is really caring for the landscape? There are no simple answers but these talks will open up debate.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"tribe-events-single-section-title\">Imagining desirable landscape futures by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/aalert\/the-network-2\/dr-eirini-saratsi\/\">Dr Eirini Saratsi<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><em>&#8220;We live in a period of rapid environmental change with potentially great impact on the landscapes where people develop their livelihoods, interact, and shape their cultures. Today\u2019s actions to protect the environment are based on perceptions of what could be good or bad in future, beneficial or detrimental, necessary, or excessive. Our visions of future landscapes are inevitably based on past and current experiences, and today\u2019s solutions may not have an enduring effect. This talk considers how our imaginative futures reflect values of care for specific places and considerations of potential challenges and opportunities for the landscapes we would like to live in in the future. The insights come from a project public dialogue carried out in 2014 where people were asked to craft and visualise their desirable vision of the future in 2060 and consider the types of actions necessary to achieve this. These visions compare and, to some degree, validate current policies and social actions for tackling environmental challenges and can provide suggestions for landscape planning and management in the future.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"tribe-events-single-section-title\">BOOKING<\/h3>\n<dl>\n<dt>You can register to the talks in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.co.uk\/e\/folar-seminar-series-tickets-327168809717\">eventbrite<\/a><\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<h3 class=\"tribe-events-single-section-title\">DETAILS<\/h3>\n<dl>\n<dt>Date: October 4<\/dt>\n<dt>Time: <span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.08px\">1:00 pm &#8211; 2:00 pm<\/span><\/dt>\n<dt>Cost: Free<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n<h3 class=\"tribe-events-single-section-title\" style=\"text-align: left\">VENUE<\/h3>\n<p>The Museum of English Rural Life (Reading, UK)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1627\" style=\"letter-spacing: 0.08px\" src=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/aalert\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/159\/2022\/05\/care-768x768-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"219\" height=\"242\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1628\" src=\"https:\/\/research.reading.ac.uk\/aalert\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/159\/2022\/05\/FOLAR-logo-1024x138-1-768x104-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"93\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A SERIES OF LUNCHTIME TALKS EXPLORING WHO IS REALLY CARING FOR OUR LOCAL LANDSCAPE Based on sites and projects in and around Reading, FOLAR presents a series of talks in&#8230;<a class=\"read-more\" href=\"&#104;&#116;&#116;&#112;&#115;&#58;&#47;&#47;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#101;&#97;&#114;&#99;&#104;&#46;&#114;&#101;&#97;&#100;&#105;&#110;&#103;&#46;&#97;&#99;&#46;&#117;&#107;&#47;&#97;&#97;&#108;&#101;&#114;&#116;&#47;&#102;&#111;&#108;&#97;&#114;&#45;&#119;&#104;&#111;&#45;&#99;&#97;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#45;&#115;&#101;&#109;&#105;&#110;&#97;&#114;&#115;&#45;&#105;&#109;&#97;&#103;&#105;&#110;&#105;&#110;&#103;&#45;&#100;&#101;&#115;&#105;&#114;&#97;&#98;&#108;&#101;&#45;&#108;&#97;&#110;&#100;&#115;&#99;&#97;&#112;&#101;&#45;&#102;&#117;&#116;&#117;&#114;&#101;&#115;&#47;\">Read More ><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":429,"featured_media":1626,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"__cvm_playback_settings":[],"__cvm_video_id":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[11,9,12],"tags":[],"coauthors":[14],"class_list":["post-1625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events","category-news","category-posts"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8.1 -
