Collaborative groups may be healing, nurturing, and inspirational—or they may founder on the rocks of conflict and poor communication. 

In this five-day intensive, we’ll explore how to structure our groups for maximum group health, how to share power fairly, improve our communication skills, mediate conflicts and facilitate group processes.

We’ll explore issues of power, privilege and diversity, and how to shift ‘’call-out’ culture to call in understanding, mutual respect and support, and real relationships.  And we’ll share tools for decision making and constructive critique.

Starhawk’s latest book, The Empowerment Manual: A Guide for Collaborative Groups, will be our foundation. 

We’ll balance the process work with time outdoors in nature and wilderness awareness. Insights from both permaculture and magic will help us learn to be more effective and joyful as we work together to regenerate our world.

There is currently a waiting list for work trade, and Diversity Scholarship applications are closed at this time.
