💚 Introducing Litter: the new journal from the EDC!
In a moment when reactionary forces narrow the space for imagination and collective action, Litter emerges as a space for radical ideas, creative interventions, and rethinking ecological design.
Submissions are now open! Link in the bio.
In the summer of 2020, during the pandemic, wildfires, and global calls for justice, the idea of the Ecological Design Collective began.
EDC is a platform to explore and connect! You can become a member today on our website: community.ecodesigncollective.org
