Dare to Care Book Tour: Turkey
Earlier this year, GEF published an English translation of the book ‘Dare to Care: Ecofeminism as a Source of Inspiration’ with the support of Oikos. Now we are thrilled to launch our Turkish translation , with a webinar that delves deeper into questions of care at the current moment!
About the event
Dare to Care offers readers a crash course in ecofeminism and invites you to get inspired by different people and movements across the world. In a Europe faced with interlocking crises, the book encourages us all to question the political and economic frameworks we see today and to consider how care, as an emancipatory principle, could offer us true solutions and transformation.
In this webinar, we mark the launch of the book’s Turkish translation, spreading the message further across Europe! Join us to discuss the term of care, widen it up to cover the ecosphere, and discuss how it relates to current issues facing Turkey and Europe today.
