Can singing help change the world? Join a joyful four day atelier where we rehearse groove driven, pop style choral songs from the Choirs for Ecocide Law project and shape them into a mini concert. “The repertoire points to a positive legal option: an international ecocide law for nature, to protect our environment and biosphere from large scale destruction. The project has already been performed in 10 European countries by more than 10.000 singers. Open to all skill levels
