Intentional Communities conference 2022
Creating a future that works for all today
Watch the recording:
Description
Embracing that conflict is natural and with systems in place for the herd, we can relax and move toward restoration. You’ve probably noticed that many intentional communities (maybe even yours?) ask their members to take Non-Violent Communication and Sociocracy training, but have you ever reflected about how to integrate those two powerful tools together? If yes, you might have found many similarities between the two. That’s because they are rooted in the same regenerative worldview. This workshop will explore their similarities, some concrete ways to integrate NVC while doing sociocracy, and an even more concrete application with a showcase of the systems used in the Care & Counsel Circle from Cherry Hill cohousing (formerly Pioneer Valley Cohousing).
