Channel: Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden (Official)
Date: 15/12/2023

【Talk Introduction】
Manish Jain explores how we can bring our energies to transforming the systems we live in after we have fallen back in love with the rest of nature. He shares his ideas and stories around moving from ‘Deadlihood’ careers and lifestyles to ‘Alivelihoods’ –  those careers that bring our deepest selves, our communities and our ecosystems alive again. How to make our work sacred again? How to reclaim local culture and reimagine education? How to rebuild the gift culture?

He shares practical experiences from his work at the Ecoversities Alliance, Swaraj University and Complexity University.

【Speaker】
Manish is a leading planetary voice for reimagining education and de-schooling our lives and is co-founder of some of the most innovative educational experiments in the world. He holds a master's degree in education from Harvard University and a BA in economics, international development and political philosophy from Brown University. However, he has been trying to unlearn these notions and striving to lead the world in reimagining education, and promoting career paths that awaken our souls and benefit the world. He has been working diligently to integrate these ideas into his practical efforts.

【Facilitator】
Liang Ying, co-founder of Schumi Learning Garden, consultant and mentor of eco-communities
