Free! Co-lab Taster Webinars. Registration required

Wherever you are on your action research journey, you are welcome to join in! 

Our 2019-2020 series of free webinars are 75 minute tasters for upcoming co-labs.  All are welcome to any and all! Free registration is necessary to receive the link and protainer guidelines in advance. 

The big picture here is that we want to provide a space for diverse gatherings intended to open multiple windows into how we can co-create regenerative society in the spirit of ART (action oriented research for transformations).  We invite you to choose among relational inquiry, i.e., enhancing second person inquiry/practice, inner work enhancing first person practice, or learn more together about about cosmo-local sustainable development. 

Also for Spanish speakers we’re experimenting with connecting Global South and North. Of course as good action researchers, we want to reflect and uncover the DNA of transformative learning with the possibility that we might harvest our experiences and insights in prototyping the ARTists Academy in 2020.  You see – it all comes together, at the same time that each co-lab, each webinar offers a taste of the whole.
