SOAK Biomimicry
Summer Academy
9—15 July 2023
Nature’s Learning Lab
in the Region Lake Neusiedl
Futurize with us in Nature's Learning Lab!
During SOAK Biomimicry 2023 you will engage with Nature directly and learn from her genius to address pressing challenges that humanity is facing at this time.
The livelihood of communities around Lake Neusiedl is threatened by the environmental impact of climate change. How might they respond to this threat and re-orient themselves and their tourism-dependent economies? How might they adapt, in the short run, to the new situation and evolve, over time, to guarantee life-giving conditions for future generations?
Join us in co-designing for and with local communities ways to re-invent who they want to become in order to meet the challenges ahead. It’s about co-creating and sustaining environmental, financial and social viability through Biomimicry—a philosophy and praxis for sustainable innovation inspired by Nature.
