MESH LEAVES III.1-III.4

Over the past few months, participants in our EUniWELL MESH BRIDGES Autumn Academy for Planetary Wellbeing: A Graduate School on Multispecies Conviviality, which took place from October 14 to 19 2024 at the University of Cologne (click here for the report), have been working on publishing their experiences and the results of their creative group work as MESH Leaves. These were presented publicly in the form of a pop-up exhibition at the University of Cologne’s International House on October 19.

We are very pleased that these new MESH Leaves are now complete and available online:

We would like to thank all participants once again for their wonderful work and dedication, and invite anyone interested to take a look at and read through the results.
