telaga zher: Proverbs on sustainability from Malaysia and Kazakhstan

This is a zine produced through a project about sustainability, creativity, and knowledge. In it, there are the products of a series of workshops in which we used proverbs to think about how we live, and how we might live. Proverbs are a form of knowledge shared in communities, and they are usually sayings and ways of thinking so old that we don’t tend to know who came up with them in the first place. They last for such a long time because they are continually useful and relevant. We used the proverbs to prompt ideas, responses, and reflections in the workshops.
