Had an amazing time leading a workshop at this year's @gloknoscentre Summer School! We delved into the world of intimacy in scientific practice, using potatoes, earthworms, and soil pores as our guides. Here are some images from the final session.

“When we do #poisonfree farming, we protect bees and pollinators , we become cocreators with them to produce more food and healthy pesticide free food” #SaveBees #PoisonFreeFarming  #WorldBeeDay @drvandanashiva
Datoo's alternative knowledge-production uses oral, verbal, visual and tactile structures of communication #multimedia to create shared languages as vehicles for truth, the democratisation of #science and portals between worlds and communities. #indigeousknowledge #freethepotato
