Introductory Workshops

Neighbourhood biology is an idea, a dream, a banner, a perspective.

It is a collective effort, a new discipline of our modern sciences, a challenge to specialists. a chance for locals. It is an alternative career, an opportunity in real life, a fountain of new folklore and customs.

And it is just plain interesting, too.

To see for yourself how this can be, try on these central concepts from the introductory workshops. Experiment with some of the activities set out below.
