Climate change, biodiversity extinction, destruction of ecosystems, depletion of natural resources are symptoms. If we want to stop hurting, we need to treat the chronic conditions behind them. The diagnosis is clear: extractivism, financial speculation, productivism and consumerism. Can we be cured of them? Of course, and if you know us, you also know the therapy we promote.

Learning about complex topics is successful when it is a social and relational process, centred on young people.
