Our homes hold power. Our homes are latent launchpads for the urgently required civilisational renewal on our Home planet Earth.
Our homes hold power. Our homes are latent launchpads for the urgently required civilisational renewal on our Home planet Earth. In this Earth Agora you will discover the Home for Humanity Story. You will meet pathbreaking founders of exemplary Homes for Humanity across diverse cultures and sectors from all continents. You will explore how these home-initiated integral organisations are spearheading human, ecological, cultural, educational, economic renewal and systemic transformation locally, nationally and globally, amidst all our current crises. Together, the exemplary Homes for Humanity also form a trans-continental and multi-cultural ‘Earth Campus’: a living-learning laboratory and alliance for transformative education, enabling a new generation of integral leaders to build a just and regenerative future.
As new homes, movements, initiatives and organisations join in, this ever-expanding, interconnected ecosystem of Homes for Humanity embodies the simple and irreversible power of all us as humanity in unity, and of each of our homes connected across borders, to shift the paradigm and literally co-create, not heaven, but, HOME on Earth for all life.
This interactive session invites you to explore the inherent power of your own home, community, initiative or organisation be a launchpad for human and planetary transformation, while fulfilling your purpose and passion. It invites you to engage in the Homes for Humanity Journey, to join hands in transforming our divided and endangered world into an inclusive, regenerative and joyful Home on Earth for all life.
