This immersive workshop will delve into the differences between Western and Indigenous ontologies from a Sámi perspective. By exploring the meanings and ways of being, doing and knowing that are rooted in cosmological perspectives, we can gain a better understanding of the Sámi's celebration of collectivity. As well as this, we will also explore their awareness on the impact of every choice made on the collective as opposed to the Western view - which often idealises individualism.

Together, we will examine how these differing ontological perspectives relate to issues of sustainability and climate justice. Join us for an insightful session carried out ‘By the Collective’.

Note

‘By the Collective’ is an ongoing discursive performance developed by Hásstuheaddji/By The Collective.
