Workshops
I facilitate, for a very low cost or for
free, Workshops and Training on
many topics related to ecopsychology, the Earth Charter, the psychology
of
ecology, and environmental activism.
I am working at promoting the Earth Charter through Earth Charter Cowichan.
My efforts to connect people with nature
include
volunteer work with the Cowichan
Valley
Naturalists
Society and the Young
Naturalists Club of the Cowichan Valley. I also volunteer
with the Cowichan
Community Land Trust, the Land
Trust Alliance of British Columbia, and other environmental
organizations.

And in the online journal Gatherings: Seeking Ecopsychology:
For the latest on ecopsychology, see the website of the International Community for Ecopsychology. There you will find Gatherings, an ecopsychology e-journal and excellent links to lots of ecopsychology-related websites along with lists of researchers, practitioners, coming events, and books. There is also a Blog about ecopsychology.
For outstanding Vancouver Island wilderness adventures, join my friend Patrick Walshe at Coastal Revelations.
Michael J. Cohen's Project Nature Connect provides activities and courses in connecting with nature. If you want to learn about how to actually DO applied ecopsychology, visit his site or Steve Smith's excellent Nature Connected Resources site.
