THIRDtalk: Earthworms dialogues

Published on

Emilie Gallier, Nienke Terpsma and Nina Boas consult very young people (2-4 years old) and earthworm scientists (five women working at Wageningen University) gathering questions in the form of drawings, gathering information on earthworms, knowledges and skills to connect with earthworms and through them connecting to soils in regenerative ways.

The dialogues took place alternating visits to young people in daycares in Almere (encounters with 5 groups were supported by 2turvenhoog between May 2024 and February 2025), and visits to the scientists in Wageningen (2 visits in November-December 2024).

Tracks 1 to 3 (published in April 2025) invite us to listen in to the first half of this process (one gathering of questions from young people and one encounter with scientists of Wageningen).
