Declan D'Arcy - Facilitator
Declan is concerned with returning to a world grounded on principles of kindness and care. He is committed to turning towards the disconnection and dehumanisation that is destroying the web of life. He is a trained facilitator, working at the intersection of nature-connection, decolonisation and trauma-informed practice to ensure transformative and adaptive responses to ecological unravelling are deeply inclusive.
Declan has been trained in a number of community building/conflict transformation modalities, The Work That Reconnects, Grief Tending, Nature-Connection, Deep Adaptation and psychospiritual resilience-building. He is also a trained cultural anthropologist, specialising in issues of power, empire and coloniality.

 He draws on 10 years + of social and environmental engagement, including direct actions, academic study, campaigning, violent conflict prevention and restoration work, grassroots mental health service provision, earth-based community resilience building and humanitarian response work.

Declan holds a First Class Honours degree in International Relations & Political Theory, Masters degree with Distinction in Anthropology of Development & Social Transformation, and Certificate in Participatory Methods from the Institute for Development Studies.
