What if we worked with nature, not against it?
Hi there!
I'm Dr. Emīlija Veselova, and I firmly believe that the next step in human evolution is a reconnection with nature.
Nature is not this random, detached thing that surrounds us. We are inherently and inseparably related, entangled, and interdependent. Humans are not the only thing or being valuable on this planet. And we have many theoretical, practical, embodied, and emotional tools to reconnect with it. Day by day, action by action.
By training, I’m a design researcher and educator. I specialize in multispecies research and design, a.k.a. more-than-human, planet-centric, eco-centric and non-anthropocentric design.
I have a strong mission to bring vital considerations about human and nature regeneration and resilience into strategic, sustainability-oriented decision-making and governance.
How can we work together?
Do you want to learn multispecies tools? Do you want a nature- or planet-centric design strategy, tools, and training for your employees? Do you want to gain cutting-edge advantage by understanding your organization’s interrelation with and dependencies on nature and preparing resilience and regeneration plan?
As of summer 2025, I’m open to industry positions and projects.
