Theme of the Day: Reclaiming Spaces: Anti-Colonial Journeys and Grassroots Movements

Cycling is one of the many forms of movement that has a deep relationship with the land. Yet, mobility is often shaped by histories of colonial exploitation and displacement. This day invites reflection on how cycling, a form of outdoor movement and physical activity, can reproduce and resist these dynamics. Learn how film and arts-based methodologies can be used to spark conversation on environmental stewardship and advocacy.
