Event Details

Join us for a talk with Bryony Schwan! 

Bryony Schwan is the Executive Director and Co-Founder of The Biomimicry Institute (TBI). Biomimicry is a way for humans to flourish on this planet by emulating the designs and strategies of other organisms that have managed to do everything we want to do - without guzzling fossil fuels, polluting the planet, or mortgaging their future.   

This conversation is guaranteed to spark your imagination and is not to be missed!

Agenda for the evening:

1. 7:00pm: We will start with a brief update and introduction to The Pachamama Alliance.
2. 8:00-9:00pm: Bryony Schwan's presentation and Q&A.

But come early! Our venue, Peña Pachamama, is a South American restaurant and they'll be happy to serve dinner (no-host) starting at 6:00pm.
