Evolving around the main essay, contributions to this assemblage reflect a
common understanding that ecology and biodiversity needs to be reclaimed –
and constantly generated – as a process of lived and living realities in a
system of reciprocal relationships.

In this book-launch webinar, four authors share excerpts of their
contributions. Drawing their individual alternative ecological and
political landscapes, they re-create an image of such interwoven linkages
and invite the audience to listen and to reflect about various facets of a
common ecological future.

*With:*

*Andreas Weber*, Eco Philosopher, marine biologist and author of the main
essay. Based in Germany and Italy, Andreas develops a “Biopoetics”, a new
understanding of life as an embodied process of subjectivity and shared
meaning. Teaching Ecophilosophy at the University of the Arts, Berlin, he
is adjunct professor at IIT Guwahati, India.

*Shristee Bajpai*, researcher-activist based in India and member of the
environmental action group Kalpavriksh. Shristee’s research is focussed on
exploring alternatives to mainstream development models, documenting
worldviews of communities and networking.

*Sonal Jain*, working at the intersection of art, ecology, technology and
activism in India and worldwide. Sonal has shown her work at prominent
venues like: Solomon Guggenheim Museum, New York and The Venice Biennale.

*Kaustubh Deka*, teaches Political Science at Dibrugarh University, Assam,
India. Kaustubh’s work concentrates on ecological politics, youth politics,
identity assertion and inquiries into understanding the category of
Northeast India.

*Minna Salami*, Nigerian-Finnish and Swedish writer, will moderate and
contextualize the webinar’s dialogue. As founder of the multiple
award-winning blog, MsAfropolitan, Minna connects feminism with critical
reflections on contemporary culture from an Africa-centred perspective.

Opening remarks by *Marion Regina Müller* (Country Director, hbs Regional
Office, New Delhi)
