This week’s theme: Equity now and for the future (+ intro to the space).
Intention — setting the stage to dive in to these complex spaces.
The messy melody of life.
Approaching these profoundly charged topics… deeply, lovingly, bravely and with gentle care to imagine a new way of being, together.
:::wry smiles::: and for me as a disabled nature-being with sorrow, humour, prosaic-blahness and beauty.
Shaun has kindly agreed to open this first session to hold our values and share what speaks to his heart
Our treasured alum who explored these themes last year are invited to share their journey and personal lived experience. Murphy Robinson also confirmed, others TBC.
We will then, numbers dependent, either flow into break out sessions or stay within an intimate circle and explore.
With care for people’s schedule, this will be held fortnightly every second Monday 12:30 – 14:00 ET
So it will only run three times during the StF DD and as a few of you have desired will then flow into the future.
All welcome. To any in DD with me please feel no pressure, we will be gently unfurling this and to assist:
• Sessions will be recorded.
• If you are unable to attend but wish to share your lived experience of a theme: videos are most welcome.
Proposed Future Themes:
• Ageing: agency and care
• Elders: the gift of intergenerational community
• Disability: invisible and visible
• Healthcare
• Decolonising it all
• Death
Each beginning with anyone who wishes sharing their lived experience, rooting our exploration in the physicality, the reality of now. So we can imagine and create the future.
Knowing many stories is wisdom.
Knowing no stories is ignorance.
Knowing only one story is death.
