Entangled Ecologies: Exploring Child, Soil, and Multispecies Assemblages

Place:

Whadjuk Boodjar, Boorloo/Perth, Australia

“Entangled Ecologies” explores how children, soil, and multispecies beings co-emerge through play in early childhood settings. Using posthumanist and new materialist theories, it examines intra-actions via soil art, mindful walks, and sensory mapping. The study rethinks agency and learning through Buddhist and ecological ethics, positioning soil as vibrant matter and children as co-creators of ethical, sustainable multispecies relations.
