| Abstract
|
:
|
In this book, the authors highlight the pedagogical practices that foster transformation from our current way of thinking about our place in the world to an underlying ecological way of seeing and acting. The book offers a selection of transformative practices that demonstrate, in specific contexts, the complex journey and contextual conditions that move us forward towards a deeper realization that we are part of the world around us, holding a greater promise for deeper ecological awareness. To this end, thirteen chapters offer an array of practices in diverse life settings, educational environments, communities and workplaces, and personal relationships. Contributors and their material represent a range of cultures, work setting and professions. The aspect of this work that distinguishes it from other books in the field is its exploration of how consciousness can be transformed through practices, experience and action
