The Ecology of Home

Ecological solutions must be brought into the mainstream of places, politics, and planning. This year's H.O.P.E.S. conference provides a forum for sharing local solutions to global problems by celebrating grassroots efforts around the country and around the world. We will use our home, Eugene, Oregon, as a model to explore the challenges facing the diverse and spirited communities that are at a crossroads of environmental change.

As citizens, designers, artists, and visionaries, we all play active roles in shaping the livability and sustainability of our communities. We invite you to bring your own stories, experiences, and ideas to the conference. We believe that your solutions can lead the world towards realizing a new and continued commitment to the places we call home.

Reweaving the World: In presentations, exhibits and readings about the natural world, artists and writers will help us better understand the relationship between ourselves, our projects and the natural environment. The event will feature large, cooperative restoration efforts ‹ where individuals and stakeholders band together to improve our natural environment with community-based stewardship as an integral part.
For the first time the SER will host symposia on "Art and Expression." Several WEAD artists are presenting panels and individual slide talks. A concurrent environmental art exhibit of some sort is being planned.
