| Description |
The national nonprofit organization, Fellowship
for Intentional Community, is sponsoring this
three day immersion into the world of Intentional
Community and the evolution of cooperative,
sustainable culture at the University of New
Mexico, May 30-June 1.
We are gathering to explore the intersection between
community-building, sustainability and cultural
change. Topics will include Residential
Intentional Community and Guerilla Community
Building, Sustainable Urban Regeneration,
Permaculture & Ecovillages. The topic of
'Community' will be looked at from many different
angles: as part of peace and social justice work,
a life choice to live cooperatively, as a
spiritual path, as a laboratory for social
change, and an antidote to global climate change.
Other workshops will teach consensus, conflict
resolution and other group dynamic topics, plus
look at economics and development issues. The Art
of Community Southwest will feature speakers,
workshops, tabling and networking events, and a
Saturday night banquet and benefit auction.
Whether you currently live in community or not,
we hope you will be inspired to bring this
learning home and make your life more
sustainable... and much more fun!
Speakers will include:
* Laird Schaub, Executive Secretary of the Fellowship for Intentional Community and author of the community and consensus blog;
* Albert Bates The Farms Ecovillage Training Center, Author: Climate in Crisis, and Voices from The Farm
* Myra Murphy-Jacob, Sustainable Global Leadership Alliance, Green It!
* Margo Adair, Tools for Change; Author, Meditations on Everything Under the Sun
* Mark Dubois, The Pachamama Alliance, International Earth Day Coordinator, Winslow Cohousing
* Tony Sirna, co-founder of Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage and the editor of the most recent Communities Directory;
* Mary Lou Singleton, Urban Homesteader; Midwives Alliance of North America Board of Directors; Earth Activist
* Ma'ikwe Schaub Ludwig, Albuquerque's own community-building dynamo and author, "Passion as Big as a Planet: Evolving Eco-activism in America"
