About the hosts
Astraea has been developing solutions for the social and natural dysfunctions, like pollution, inequality, climate volatility and violence, that humanity is experiencing. Since 1999 a body of reseach and experience has been amassed across a range of disciplines and technical areas. This resource clarifies global trends and offers interconnected approaches for positive change in personal and organisation development. Our "big picture" or holonic approach allows us to step out of our cultural "fishbowl" and liberate the potential for altruism and contentment. Solutions are shared via our websites, social media, books, videos, events, courses and conversations.
Astraea's installation, Feast Upon The Earth commissioned by the Irish Museum of Modern Art, offers and immersive perspective on humanity's place in existence and helps people from all walks of life to see the big picture, ask relevant questions, clarify values and make positive change.
We look forward to exploring our shared future together!
Please join us at the Mary Robinson Climate Conference 2024, 5-7 June, for an interactive workshop "Envisioning our Shared Future Together". This is an opportunity to participate in one of our enriching, thought provoking sessions not normally available to the public. The cost is almost free as participation is included in the cost of tickets to the whole conference.
The Conference also offers the opportunity to explore the timescape of existence, Feast Upon The Earth, which will be displayed in the main exhibition room and will be referenced in the workshop.
A Shared Response to a Shared Responsibility
Climate change, and the immense challenges that it presents, impacts everyone. As such, climate change is multifaceted, requiring a collective response reflecting our shared responsibility to address the challenges ahead. This includes an acknowledgement of diverse voices and lived realities to engage meaningful intergenerational dialogue that co-produces positive pathways for impact. The Mary Robinson Climate Conference is an inclusive multidisciplinary forum bringing together voices from all sectors of academia and society to share climate experiences and discuss pathways for a sustainable future.
The 2nd Mary Robinson Climate Conference takes place in Ballina, birthplace of the former President, on 5-7 June 2024.
