Jacques and Jennifer revisit the theme of 'relationality' from their very first program i.e. the idea that we do not really exist as separate individuals, but as part of living networks of relationships with each other and nature.

We need to rid ourselves of the western notion that people are the centre of creation, who can exploit nature with impunity.

Instead, for our very survival, we need to nurture healthy relationships - between men and women, between people, and with all living things on this planet.
