Singapore’s Natural Heritage: Are We Doing Enough to Safeguard Its Future?
Singapore has an immensely rich natural heritage. Nonetheless, the resilience of our biological natural resources must not be taken for granted, as it is intimately tied to our survival as a nation.
Join our panelists as we explore how our colonial legacy, shifting socio-cultural biases and current infrastructural capabilities have shaped our attitudes towards nature, and discuss how individuals and groups–through the lens of Education, Civil Society and Science–can play a part to safeguard Singapore’s natural heritage.

The Legacies We are Building: an Intergenerational Community Space
The world is on fire. It has been for a long time, but the heat of it all feels extra relentless these days. A lot of us are carrying around the heaviness of despair, wondering how to resist and who to do it with.
How can we hold one another through this? How do we continue legacies built by those before us while building some of our own to pass on? What can we learn from one another, in this ever-changing world, where oppressive structures keep shapeshifting and violence takes on different faces?
Come join us in our community space to ask questions, share discussions and mingle!
