Jay Griffiths

Award winning environmental writer speaks about the indigenous populations she has spent time with and their relationship with the wild


Jay Griffiths will be discussing her new publication ‘Wild; an Elemental Journey’, which talks of the time she has spent amongst various indigenous communities around the world and the unique relationships they share with their natural environments which defines their culture and identity. The book talks of the dangers we all face from an encroaching western monoculture which acts to distance ourselves ever further away from nature. The purpose and aim of the book and lecture essentially is to remind us that as human beings ‘wild land’ is intrinsic to the wellbeing of a healthy mind and spirit.
