At a time of rapid change across Regional Australia, the Stories of Place, Community and Environment (SPACE) Walk invites different knowledge holders and community changemakers to come together to creatively explore the local landscape and consider future possibilities for farming, the environment, the community, and the wider region.
The SPACE Walk is designed to use the act of walking together through the landscape to acknowledge each of us as knowledge holders in our own right, to share stories, and to listen attentively to each other and the environment we’re moving through.
The first SPACE Walk was held in the Narromine Shire of Central West New South Wales in southeastern Australia on a perfect spring day in September 2024. 11 people gathered on a farm to walk together as they considered their connection to each other and the landscape, the role of imagination, missing voices, the importance of diversity, purpose and intent, and what actions we need to take to be Good Ancestors.
