For over 95% of our history, we have lived as nomadic hunter-gatherers, with nomadism central to understandings of ecological balance. But when we are politically and culturally restricted from nature, we become unable to take care of it. The Right to Roam movement, to which Harry belongs, calls for public access to the English countryside, 92% of which is inaccessible.</p><p>Looking at mobility and ecological reciprocity among Indigenous peoples today, Harry will discuss inspirations for Wild Service and draw upon his ethnographic work among Indigenous peoples in the Arctic.</p><p>Wild Service offers a renewal of relationships, where we recognise humanity as part of, rather than separate from nature.</p><p>Harry will be LIVE in the Daryll Forde, 2nd Floor, UCL Anthropology Dept, 14 Taviton St, WC1H 0BW. <br>Please arrive by 6:30pm before doors close.

Josh<p>Well this is pretty obscene. This is a national park, and one dude thinks he can tell us not to have a picnic there. Let alone camp there which has been an established right for decades now. Confiscate and transfer the land to the National Trust, I say. How has this one guy got the right to tell us what to do in our countryside?
