Program - Gathering of Tribes

An open, co-created event

Inspired by unconferences, ancient tribal gatherings, burningman, and conventions, The Gathering of Tribes is an open space for playful co-creation.

The programme is co-created by the camps, each bringing their gifts and inquiries to they feel will contribute to the building the regenerative ecosystem.

You are invited to share your gifts and bring your questions,
together we build the regenerative movement.

“The art of transformative cultural innovation is to a large extent about making our peace with ‘not knowing’ and living into the questions more deeply, making sure we are asking the right questions, paying attention to our relationships and how we all bring forth a world not just through what we are doing, but through the quality of our being. A regenerative culture will emerge out of finding and living new ways of relating to self, community and to life as a whole. At the core of creating regenerative cultures is an invitation to live the questions together.”

Daniel C. Wahl

Sustainability is not enough: we need regenerative cultures

Questions
Workshops
Dialogue

The gathering is inspired by the above quote – “to live the questions together” – thus our focus is to open up space to grapple together with questions how to build the regenerative culture. Through workshops and dialogue we will live together with questions such as:

What does regenerative mean?
What makes a project or organisation regenerative?
How can regenerative tribes (projects, orgs, communities, businesses) together weave a regenerative ecosystem?
How to create a livelihood in the regenerative ecosystem?
What is the ‘mycelium’ interconnecting regenerative tribes?
How do we make these ideas easy to adopt?
How do we make these ideas _easier_ than mainstream is today to drive adoption?
How do we make the ideas and principles of regeneration more accessible? Less “commune”, more “organic community”, curated with ontological design at its core
How to avoid burnout?
What is the role re:build can play in the ecosystem?
How can the next Gathering of Tribes be even more impactful?

What question are you bringing to the gathering?

Project Launches

Working remotely enables us to collaborate country-wide and globe-wide, yet for initial connection, for building alignment for starting projects in-person time is invaluable. Moreover support of elders and community can also help a lot when starting.

The gathering is intended as a platform to launch projects and collaborations.

The following projects are intending to be launched at this year’s gathering:

What activities will there be?

Camps and Participants are invited to share anything that enables you to show and explore why, who, how and what you are about, share questions as much as answers, ask for help, as well as offering it.
Design sessions to connect you with people, partners, ideas, questions and answers. Share your practices, throw a party, make it meaningful to you.
Together we build the regenerative ecosystem,
Let’s play!
