Exploring “renewal” and “regeneration” through a holistic perspective, this project presents these concepts through the lens of sustainability.

Whether they are exploring the impact of fires and controlled burns on the ecosystem or considering ways to regenerate and heal from trauma, students will have the opportunity to consider the many ways that people and the environment can rejuvenate in the wake of real or perceived destruction.In this folder, you will find:1.
