WHAT IS GREENPRINTS?

Greenprints is a program created by AELA that:

• provides a practical, step-by-step approach to help people understand both the big picture and the small details of how to transform our societies, so we can protect the environment, build new economies and thrive within safe ecological and climate limits
  
• can bring people together across communities and bioregions, to forge new futures, by joining up our existing and new efforts and initiatives;
• is an Australian-designed approach, that aims to be accessible to anyone. It demystifies and connects the many varied concepts, models and methods that can be used to create sustainable and regenerative communities, organisations and societies (It helps you use Doughnut Economics, Global Ecological Footprint, Rights of Nature, SDGs and other approaches!)
• cuts through jargon and outlines a step-wise approach to creating systems change and governance transformation at any scale
  

WHO SHOULD ATTEND? Greenprints is for everyone - community activists, lawyers, scientists, Indigenous leaders, economists, school teachers - anyone who's interested in or already involved in creating real systems change, to protect our environment and create new governance approaches

ABOUT OUR SPEAKER - DR MICHELLE MALONEY

Dr Michelle Maloney created the Greenprints approach in 2015/2016, in response to the many community groups who wanted a manageable approach for bringing all 'the good stuff' together, to create systems change. After several years of research, piloting and developing useful mapping tools, AELA has been sharing Greenprints with a range of groups and would love to tell you about our progress.

Michelle is Co-Founder and National Convenor of the Australian Earth Laws Alliance (AELA), Adjunct Senior Fellow, Law Futures Centre, Griffith University; and Director of the New Economy Network Australia (NENA) and Future Dreaming Australia.  She advocates for systems change, in order to shift industrialised societies from a human-centred, to an Earth centred governance system.
