The Arne Næss Institute is rooted in Nordic traditions of wisdom of the open air and lifelong learning. It builds on the legacy of ecosophy, the foundation laid by Arne Næss, who placed respect for life at the center of all deep inquiry and committed action.
The Arne Næss Institute is woven through gatherings, voices, and shared learning. Each project, each conversation, each step we take is Næss’s legacy coming to life.
