Haumea Ecoversity courses will help you:
Whether you are a creative, cultural or community development professional, an educator, activist, scientist or business leader...
- understand that gaining a sustainability worldview for a better world requires us to embrace lifelong, life-wide, head-heart-body transformative learning
- become fluent in the new integrated ecosocial thinking, language, and values–to confidently communicate and enact an ecological, just and sustainable worldview - this is at the heart of enduring behaviour change for a better world
- because our classes are small you can enjoy fruitful dialogue and a genuine sense of community with others from Ireland, Europe, the US, and Australasia, who are similarly passionate about envisioning and acting for radical cultural renewal.
- our courses are led by experienced ecocultural practitioner educators, ecological artist Dr Cathy Fitzgerald (Ireland) and philosopher Dr Nikos Patedakis (California). We both have backgrounds in science and are professionally accredited in Education for Sustainable Development with the Earth Charter and Permaculture Design.

Facilitator Bio:
Nikos left academia to focus on helping professionals of all kinds learn to think the way nature works, by taking advantage of what he sees as the single greatest untapped cultural resource humanity has: The philosophical traditions of the world, and the storehouse of practical wisdom they contain for solving complex personal and global challenges. Nikos sees art as having a special relationship with philosophy. Both philosophy and art seek to see the world with fresh eyes and an awakened heart, and they seek to offer this insight and inspiration to the culture at large, for the benefit of all citizens and the broader community of life. To bring about a more just and thriving culture in the most direct and intelligent manner, we need to empower the arts by making philosophy as a way of life available to artists and to arts education. Nikos offers training to artists that transforms both their experience of life and their practice of creativity and art-making. Learn more about Nikos and his work at www.DangerousWisdom.org
