House of the West Wind Christmas Lecture – online
8pm - 10pm GMT (UK time)
The House of the West Wind: College of Storytelling is delighted to present its 2023 Christmas Lecture with Alette Willis.
Join us live on Zoom on Friday 29th December at 8pm GMT.
Wildwoods Alumnist, storyteller, author and researcher, Alette Willis, will share findings from a piece of research she led at the University of Edinburgh into how storytelling can help to shift individuals and communities towards lower carbon ways of living.
This research engaged with 50 storytellers from the UK and beyond who self-identified as having at least 3 years experience in working with stories around nature connection, climate change, environmental education and social change work.
Through interviews, surveys and participant observation, the team explored good practice in relation to working with stories on these topics. This project was contracted by the British Academy, which funds research for policy-making across the UK.
