Trail Design in an Animate World
A Philosophical Inquiry into Consent, Relationship, and Reciprocity
This webinar invites trail designers, planners, and stewards into a radical reimagining of their role—not as prescribers of sustainability, but as participants in a living, animate world. Drawing inspiration from deep ecological traditions, Indigenous teachings, and the spiritual dimensions of place-based work, it offers a reframing of trail design as a reciprocal act rooted in humility, listening, and respect.

- Zionne Fox, Director of Relational Conservation, Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST)
