Application for Embodying Collective Transformation Community Residencies
Autumn 2022 -- Life Itself Hub, Bergerac, France

For questions, contact us at: info@culturalcatalystnetwork.org

Hello! We are so glad for your interest in this year's Embodying Collective Transformation community residencies. Our hope is that you'll find filling out this application to be a meaningful self-reflection and mini transformation experience unto itself. We look forward to hearing from you!

Please understand that there are a limited number of places available in each community residency and training. Applications will be reviewed as they are submitted, followed by an invitation to an interview call with two members of the Facilitation & Hosting team for any follow-up questions or concerns (from your side as well as ours). Typically it will take 4+ weeks from the date of your application for a final decision about admissions.

If you apply to be on a WAITING LIST, we will review your application and invite you to an interview if/when a spot becomes available.

In this application we are most interested in how we can acknowledge and reflect both on how we all shine, and how we all struggle. Our understanding is that none of us is complete in our development, so we invite you to respond as honestly as you can about both your celebrations and challenges.

As we wish for you to express yourself in this application in a way that is as natural as possible, if you would rather respond to some or all of these questions using a video recording or some other means of communication, please feel free. That said, written responses are very welcome.

We realize there are a number of deeper reflection questions, so we invite you to aim for less than 250 words (or 2 minutes speaking) for each response.

All responses will be confidential.
