Many people around the world, including civil society, scientists, youth, and policymakers are concerned about the future of our common home and the choices we must make today to ensure that we change our course and stop contributing to our current planetary crises. To do this, all decision-makers, including governments, the private sector, and individuals must come together to achieve our global goals for sustainability, justice and peace, guided by common values. Through this intercultural dialogue, we will explore what it means to work towards an ecological civilization and what we can learn from the knowledge we have and what we have accomplished so far.
In this webinar Earth Charter will continue the conversation, started in the 2020 webinar series on Ecological Civilization, with the following questions:
- What is an Ecological Civilization?
- What are the possible paths and driving forces to get there?
- What are some good examples paving the way towards this vision?
