Together we set up a temporary pedagogical station in Sebkha Sejoumi to imagine a guardians' school there. The program was designed in collaboration with local initiatives that are already engaged on the protection of the lake, with the aim to reconnect, restore and imagine new forms of justice for Séjoumi. On the program you can find workshops and lectures on ecocide, rights of nature and the role of guardians of nature. There will be moments for listening, contem-plating, activating and singing and a final moment to taste the perfumes and flavors of the land acti-vated by femmes locales et artisanes de Séjoumi.

*The school is the first outcome of Natural Contract Lab, a long term research-project in collabora-tion with local initiatives between 2021 and 2023.  The artistic investigation attempts to design a sustained practice that consolidates a restorative process of mapping bodies of water relationality with its harms, grief, repair and resistance to expand ripples of active engagement proposing recip-rocal futures.
