Abstract
This chapter synthesizes and makes meaning of descriptive research findings regarding lesbian and women’s lands and women-led projects as ecofeminist sustainability learning centres through living in outdoor learning environments. Through treks, ceremonies, land-based sustainable living experiments, small-scale farming, permacultural householding, collective creative ventures, and feminist culture genesis, women’s lands and women-led adventures incubated effective, local, small-scale learning alternatives to industrial domination education. Women-led outdoor experiential learning environments offered open spaces for slowing and presence that affirm sufficiency, emergence-from-within, strengths-based skills, opportunities, and sanctuary-towards. Grounded in compassion and an ecofeminist ethic of care, these outdoor experiences nurtured creativity within and amongst learners and the land. They catalysed regenerative ripples and generative webs and networks of Gaian flourishing that further nurture and liberate other educational and cultural contexts. Decolonizing perspectives can further strengthen the offerings.
