About this Event
We are delighted to invite you to Rewilding: Reimagining Collective Futures for Sustainability, and artist-let Walkshop along Regent’s Canal in Mile End on Wednesday 15th April 2026, 4.00–6.00pm.
This free event brings together people interested in questions of sustainability, governance, planning, community engagement, and environmental practice. It offers a shared, site-specific experience that invites participants to slow down, observe closely, and reflect together on the relationships between place, nature, and decision-making.
The session will include an experiential and interactive walk of approximately one and a half miles along the canal, facilitated by Talking Birds, an arts group based in Coventry. Designed to be engaging and reflective, the walk creates space for conversation across different perspectives and disciplines while attending to the particularities of the local environment.
The event forms part of a new research project at Queen Mary University of London that explores how experiments in rewilding might help us reimagine more sustainable futures.
There is nothing to prepare ahead of time, but please wear comfortable clothes and suitable footwear for walking.
We will meet at ECOLOGY PAVILION, Mile End Park, 125 Grove Road, London, E3 5RP
The Walkshop will end at: “Rise & Roast Breakfast Coffee” where we will continue the conversation over tea and cakes (for free). The address of the Coffee Shop is 395 Mile End Rd, Bow, London E3 4PB.
The event is free to attend and is funded by the Faculty of Humanities and Social Science, Queen Mary University of London (QMUL).
