Zoöp is a form or organisation for collaboration between humans and ecological communities of nonhumans. An overview of the concept can be found here. Over the course of the last couple of months the format has been developed at the Neuhaus temporary academy for more-than-human-knowledge. In this last research workshop it will be subjected to stress tests and extreme scenarios to see if it is ready to be deployed in the first pilot-zoöps in 2020.

Is it sufficiently flexible and light to be used by (very) different organisations? How does hold up to attempts at greenwashing? Is it sufficiently robust to contribute to ecological regeneration under different climatological and other circumstances?
