During the 2025 TPEC programme, there were a series of public events including:

Online Reading Session: Ideas to Postpone the End of the World

On 24 January 2025, we held an online reading session that brought together over 20 participants—local and international—to read and reflect on Ailton Krenak’s Ideas to Postpone the End of the World. The session opened space for collective thinking on Indigenous cosmologies, resistance, and what is asked of us in turbulent times—seeding the questions that carried into the in-person TPEC events that followed.

Collective of Collectives Gathering

In the week of 27–31 January 2025, members of reschooling-with, PostExtractive Futures, and Pluriversity Weavers gathered in Amsterdam. The week included:

• Practice-sharing: Each collective shared its approaches, challenges, and visions, creating opportunities for mutual learning and strengthening collaboration across networks.
• Creating a “relational loom”: Through shared practices and ancestral teachings, we explored relational methodologies that challenge colonial logics of separability, and dissolve the binary understandings and fixed coherence of colonial logics.
• Unlearning habits of control: Together, we practiced staying with the unknown—trusting emergence, softening urgency, and cultivating openness to relational possibilities.
• Rituals of care and repair: Reflecting on past encounters and engaging in processes of healing, accountability, and relational repair.

Together, we spent time with land and water, with memory and imagination, with shared food and storytelling, exploring how relationality might be practiced in the here and now, as a way of being with one another and with the more-than-human world.

For reschooling-with, the learnings, reflections, and relational methodologies that emerged through this gathering became an important thread in the weaving of the 2025–2026 Reschooling Spiral. They helped shape the programme’s pedagogical approach, informing how we practice collective inquiry, cultivate conditions for emergence, and create spaces for unlearning colonial habits while strengthening more life-affirming forms of relation.

Workshop at Framer Framed

On Thursday 30 January, we opened our process to the public at Framer Framed. During the day, we offered a workshop for 26 invited researchers, artists, activists, and practitioners engaged in decolonial, post-extractive, and relational work. Centred on body-territory cartography—the workshop honoured the origins and political grounding of this feminist methodology, which emerged from frontline communities resisting extraction in Guatemala. Thoughtfully adapted for the Amsterdam context by Liliana Buitrago, the practice invited participants into embodied reflection on the interconnected violence experienced by both bodies and territories, blurring the boundaries between human and more-than-human worlds.

Public Event at Framer Framed

On the evening of 30 January, we opened our process to a wider public through a participatory gathering that shared the questions, practices, and conversations emerging from our week together and the longer trajectories of work that preceded it. The event began with a collective ritual acknowledging both the land that holds us and the extractive infrastructures within which we remain entangled. Members of the three collectives then shared reflections and learnings from their respective practices, opening a dialogue around the challenges and possibilities of cultivating relational, decolonial, and post-extractive futures. Through participatory conversations and embodied practices, participants explored how care, reciprocity, solidarity, and decolonial practice might help us respond to interconnected crises while creating conditions for other possibilities to emerge, connecting local experiences with broader struggles for ecological justice and relational liberation.
