The Active Hope training is a 4-day intensive outdoor experience where we explore our
relationship to the living world as a foundation for sustainability. We use
many practices from The Work That Reconnects, developed by Buddhist scholar,
eco-philosopher and activist Joanna Macy. This work aims to reignite a thriving
connection to life in ourselves, with others and the non-human world by fully experiencing the beauty and wonder of nature but also fully acknowledging how we feel about loss and decay. In this training you learn various nature- and community based practices that you
can take further in your personal and professional life to activate hope wherever
you go.
