Ian Skelly talks and lecture venues and dates

 

!! STOP PRESS !!

Ian Skelly took part in Robert Redford's first Sundance Festival in London when HRH The Prince of Wales introduced the first British screening of Harmony.

 

 

Ian offers engaging and inspiring illustrated talks and lectures about Harmony and can tailor his presentation to suit the group and venue.

He is able to give a detailed insight into the Prince’s passionately expressed testimony as he explains how the initiatives and projects the Prince has set up are all underpinned by the same, crucial principles.

He has recently given talks, lectures and presentations at the Royal Geographical Society and Temenos Academy in London, Yale University and the Global Philanthropists' Circle in New York, the Unversity of Maryland in Washington DC and various venues in England, from the Assembly Rooms in Ludlow to the Clacton & North East Essex Arts Society.

The making of Harmony

 

 

“This is a book which offers inspiration
for those who feel, deep down, that there is
a more balanced way of looking at the world,
and more harmonious ways of living.”
Harmony

 

 

About the talks and lectures:

Having worked so closely on this project with the Prince and because he continues to work on furthering his concern, Ian is very well placed to explain the Prince's remarkable vision and thinking.

His talks cover plenty of ground - from concerns about the way we produce our food, to the way we design our towns; from how we might better approach education, to the way we might frame our entire economic system. He illustrates the curious connection between patterns found in Nature and how the new science of Biomimicry is using those patterns to work with the grain of Nature rather than against it. And he considers the philosophical and spiritual aspects of what has become a disturbing world-wide environmental crisis, one which is set to grow ever more destructive.

"We must recognize that the challenges and immense problems we have set in train are such that common sense alone should tell us that to continue with an approach framed at the height of the 20th Century's Machine Age will be little short of suicide in the very different circumstances of the 21st Century."
HRH The Prince of Wales
