The 2nd Webinar of the “WAVE OF CHANGE” webinars,
Erasmus+ (025-3-ELO2-KA152-YOU-000372987) https://www.inedivim.gr/ today was a real revelation!
🇬🇷 Cyclades Unified (Greece) , hosted Professor Adam Klups, Care of Churches & Diocesan Advisory Committee Team Leader and Senior Church Buildings Officer at the Anglican Diocese of Gloucester, United Kingdom. The project partners from Finland, Malta, Latvia and Croatia, had the chance to attend the webinar under the title “What can churches and churchyards teach us about sustainability?” Mr. Krups explained the sustainable methods used for old buildings and answered to questions on biodiverity, too.
 
St. Edward’s Church, Stow-on-the-Wold, in Gloucestershire, was built on the site of a former Saxon church and the present-day edifice fuses various architectural styles. Whilst all of its authentic features are of interest in their own right, there is one feature that has become the most photographed door in the Cotswolds. The church’s north door, flanked by two ancient yew trees, to have sparked J. R. R. Tolkien’s inspiration for the “Doors of Durin,” the west gate of Moria that appears in a scene in the The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.
The north porch of the church was built about 300 years ago and young saplings were planted to enhance its entrance. Today these trees are now part of the architraves for the door.

Our organization collaborated with Kimolistes ngo, after receiving funding from the J F Costopoulos Foundation to organize the “StoryTelling Waves” Workshops that took place in 6 Cycladic Islands.
This is part of Agatha Rodi’s pilot initiative to make known the common
elements that unify the Cyclades, having as a starting point Kimolos
Island. Through her book «A Young Kimolistas» (link), the young learners had the chance to familiarise with the terms of«sustainability», «environmental issues», poseidonia meadows», «cultural heritage», with the use of Storytelling techniques.
The target is to gather info from students and their islands so a book
written by the young learners, participating in the program, to emerge as a means to sensibilize and keep track of each island’s traditions and
customs.
Storytelling Waves Workshops are held under the auspices of the Hellenic Tourism Organization,https://www.agatharodi.com/story-telling-waves/ & the Municipality of Kimolos.
