The Earth Charter

These days I am enrolling Haumea Ecoversity based in Ireland. The course exploring the Earth Charter is so far very interesting and inspiring for my own practice as we are analising key values represented in this oficial document originated in 1987. These values we consider them vital to a shift on the ecosocial crisis we are living. 

The Earth Charter is an international declaration of fundamental values and principles considered useful by its supporters for building a just, sustainable, and peaceful global society in the 21st century. Created by a global consultation process, and endorsed by organizations representing millions of people, the Charter "seeks to inspire in all peoples a sense of global interdependence and shared responsibility for the well-being of the human family, the greater community of life, and future generations." 

Values education is now seen as fundamental to guide: individuals’ creative work, teaching, curating; cultural institutions' sustainability communications, programming or education outreach; to foster inclusive community dialogue for ecosystem restoration endeavours; and to deepen sustainability and social justice understanding for those working in science, law, industry, politics, faith communities or business.
