About this event

The Transmutation Principle is hosting a free sustainability community workshop on
22nd May 6.30pm - 9.30pm at The Sustainability Academy.

The hands-on learning comes through the Biodiversity Collage Workshop, facilitated by local Biodiversity Collage facilitators in Singapore.


What is SYNC?


SYNC is a five-part social impact series that is supported by the SG Eco Fund, designed to engage all of Singapore public on different sustainability topics from a social impact perspective, in support of the Singapore Green Plan pillars.


About The Workshop

In this workshop, you'll learn why biodiversity is vital for the wellbeing & preservation of our societal ecosystems. The challenge lies in balancing urban demand for natural resources/services with a need to protect nature.

Through this hands-on interactive workshop, we'll unpack our interdependence with nature & how human activities are contributing to biodiversity loss.


Our workshop methodology: The Biodiversity Collage

Learn about the interconnectedness of all life on Earth. Thanks to a science-based set of cards (based on the IPBES reports), discover the fundamental interactions within biodiversity, the causes and consequences of its decline. Biodiversity is related to all aspects of our life, especially health and wellness. Discover how our societies and even health systems depend very much on nature.

We are building a community of people who are curious, concerned and want to contribute to making Singapore a more sustainable and climate aware society!
