This is a challenging day-long learning experience, part lecture, part workshop, beginning with some pre-reading and ending at the pub. We’ll unpack some useful concepts and frameworks. We’ll point to exemplars and draw from lived experience. Afterward, we’ll share additional resources and host an online follow up discussion sometime in May. 

More inclusive and fair, ecologically wise and socially flourishing, resilient and adaptable, life affirming - how can we shift our local societies toward these goals? What roles might ideas about conviviality, culture and commons play in this process of change? These are among the questions that will guide our inquiry. Join us!
