Join a small community for this immersion in the Work that Reconnects, a body of ideas and group practices known worldwide for empowering change-makers in the transition to a more just and sustainable world. Joanna Macy and her colleagues have been evolving this dynamic work over the course of four decades, inspiring many thousands of people to engage wholeheartedly in a Great Turning to a life-sustaining society. The work, an experiential approach, honors both the beauty and despair that exist in our world. Learn how to be fully present to the suffering of our world and experience a shift from feelings of despair and apathy to enthusiasm for collaborative action and collective liberation.
