"There are great opportunities to survive and indeed thrive, if we are willing to honour our myriad connections to other lives in other places." Anthony Burke
Our increasing intrusion into the natural world is creating strange new risks and endangering the future of all life.
The rapid loss of the Earth’s biodiversity and animal abundance is one of the key markers of the Anthropocene—a crisis so grave that biologists now say that the sixth mass extinction of species is underway.
This notion of the Anthropocene seems frightening and overwhelming, and indeed it is an epoch of much greater human vulnerability as well as human power.
So how do we find a sense of agency and hope in these challenging times? How can we think about not just surviving, but thriving in the Anthropocene?

What can we learn while we are apart? Short talks from isolation.
In a year that has tested our resolve, and has seen our lives change profoundly, UNSW researchers reflect on the lessons we can learn from our socially distanced world.
If we take heed of these lessons, can we improve our lives for the better and hold onto the things we value most? These lessons can be the silver lining to all this disruption – and can help us thrive, not merely survive in challenging times.
In this series, hear from nine UNSW researchers as they explore what we can learn during this time of isolation and change.
A UNSW Centre for Ideas and Grand Challenges program collaboration.
