SUMMARY:April General Meeting: Mangroves of the Solomon Islands
DESCRIPTION:In April\, the IWA invites you to travel to the South Pacific with us and enter a world of mysterious mangrove forests and feminine power over the resources within them. \nWe have asked Heide K. Bruckner (University of Graz) to share the food\, climate\, and feminist dimensions of her work in the Solomon Islands.  \nMangrove forests are found in tropical swamp regions where the land and sea meet\, areas home to some of the most biologically complex ecosystems on Earth. Because these plants can efficiently absorb and store carbon from the atmosphere\, they have gained fame as “climate superheroes”. But mangroves have different meanings for local communities that depend on them for food and firewood. These forests are highly gendered spaces\, key to indigenous food sovereignty and cultural identity. They are also threatened by logging and resource exploitation. \nBased on her pioneering research in the Solomon Islands\, South Pacific\, Dr. Bruckner shows that more locally based and inclusive feminist approaches to mangroves (and their management) are needed to meet entangled food and climate justice goals. In her talk\, she will present insights from her ongoing work with gender\, mangroves\, and food systems\, reflecting on the challenges and opportunities of transnational feminism and environmental justice. \nPlease sign up to join this event by sending us an e-mail.

SUMMARY:Get Fit in Graz / Pro Aktiv Forest Meditation Walk
DESCRIPTION:IWA “Get Fit in Graz” forest meditation walk in the Leechwald \nIn 2024\, the IWA entered a collaboration with the Verein Jukus to participate the ‘Pro Aktiv’ project\, which promotes movement in everyday life and creates awareness of the connection between exercise\, health\, and well-being. Our members’ interest in Pro Aktiv inspired us to create our ‘Get Fit in Graz’ group\, where we motivate one another to do more sports and movement activities. \nWe invite you to join us on this special Pro Aktiv / IWA walk in the Leechwald forest on May 13. \nWe will meet at the Tram 1 end stop (Mariatrost) at 9:45 a.m. and walk up to the Mariatrost Basilica\, then continue along the Roseggerweg through the Leechwald forest to the Hilmteich pond. In between\, we will take time for breathing and stretching exercises. \nLisa G. and Alena S. from the Jukus Verein will lead this walk and talk about the project.  \nNote about the location: \nAt the Hilmteich\, you can either take Tram 1 or Bus 58 back into the city. The Purberg Café is also right by the Hilmteich\, and members can enjoy a drink after the walk or have a picnic in the meadow. Partners\, guests\, and children are welcome on this walk. The walk (length: 3.7 km\, mostly flat terrain\, approx. 1.5 hours) is generally suitable for young children and prams. Please note that you should wear sturdy shoes and take a water bottle with you. \nPlease sign up here \nLearn more about the project: https://www.jukus.at/gesundheit/pro_aktiv/

Turn left into Krenngasse and follow Krenngasse to the Schillerplatz. The café is on your right. \nYour hostess will be Bettina D.
