| Abstract: | What is the role, value, and responsibility of higher educational systems to respond to the growing crises of climate change and biodiversity loss? This article explores responses from alternative and innovative places of learning that often exist outside of conventional universities and colleges. These places of higher education are challenging what it means to learn, how knowledge is created, and how we should engage with the more-than-human world. Born from social and ecological movements as well as Indigenous communities, these places of higher education offer radically different values, theories, and practices for what learning within a university can and should be. Shared by many Indigenous knowledge systems and ecologically grounded approaches to learning, we propose conceptualizing and putting into practice the "Realm of Relations" as a key step for stewardship, care, and engagement with the living world. |
