SUMMARY:Rooted & Resourced: A 1-Day Retreat for Change-Agents
DESCRIPTION:Are you longing for a chance to recharge and renew your commitments in solidarity with others? Join GWI for a meaningful\, joyful one-day retreat to find a rooted sense of belonging and to resource the important work ahead. \nThis one-day retreat is a chance to take intentional time away from day-to-day challenges to be in community with others who are working towards just futures and regenerative practices. We have three goals: to build relationships that bolster our access to mutual support\, to refresh practices that help move us collectively towards durable and positive change\, and to renew our energies in an environment crafted to open our hearts and light up our vitality. \nGWI facilitators will offer a nourishing set of collaborative sessions\, designed to balance energizing full group experiences and time to talk in smaller groups. We will invite participants in spaces that will allow everyone to share\, learn and listen; we will provide time for renewing our energies; and we will offer space to practice the skills required for joyful\, effective\, cooperative action. \nWe will be drawing from practices that include: setting working agreements; non-violent communication and empathy share; clarity on the vision that animates us; and tools for how to hold space and use equitable meeting practices in your organizing efforts or workplaces. We will end the day sharing dinner together at a local restaurant. \nMore info & Registration here

SUMMARY:Art of Facilitation: Community of Practice (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:We know that collaboration is not an automatic result of a desire to work together well\, but flows from intentional\, ongoing practices that develop the awareness and capacities of the members of the working group over time. Enter the facilitator. \nIn this lightly-facilitated gathering\, we aim to provide a space for all of us to share our approaches\, challenges\, and learnings as we experiment and grow in our practice as facilitators. This offering is a discussion-based session\, a community of practice. This is not a workshop\, although we will share tips and tricks\, as we hear from each other. \nWe invite you to join this discussion if any of the following apply: \nYou hold the responsibility in leading or co-leading a class\, working group\, or team\nYou sense there might be better ways for you all to collaborate in meetings but are not sure how to shift things\nYou seek a more democratic process when making group decisions or gathering people’s input\nYou’d like support from other facilitators! \nMore info & Registration here
