Nature connection and resilience for a sustainable future

Mirawara is a non-for- profit social enterprise based in Castlemaine. We are a bunch of passionate outdoor and environmental educators who want to promote connections and the creation of stories/culture between young people and nature through outdoor education activities such as rock-climbing, bushwalking, canoeing, bush skills, naturestudies and much more. Witha strong emphasis on community engagement, Mirawara hopes to develop deep and meaningful outdoor experiences for our young local community.

Where do we find resilience in these challenging times? How do we embrace a way of life that protects and enhance the natural world? Mirawara is organising an event that will touch on those questions and open conversation of how to move forward in this changing world.
