In Canada, Anishinabe author, journalist and University of Manitoba professor Niigaan Sinclair is deeply involved in issues relating to the Aboriginal way of life and culture. His latest book, Winipêk: Visions of Canada from an Indigenous Centre, won the Governor General's Award for non-fiction. Author and forest ranger Peter Wohlleben is not only the author of the international bestseller The Secret Life of Trees. In Germany where he leaves, he runs a sustainable forest academy and campaigns for the conservation of forests and trees in Germany and around the world. Can allochthonous and autochthonous visions of the forest and more generally of nature converge? And how? And will the climate crisis still have the last word?
In collaboration with the Canada Council for the Arts to celebrate the finalists and winners of the Governor General's Literary Awards.
