Eva and Justin were guests of podcast 44 [https://accidentalgods.life/re-democratising-democracy/] - in which we explored the links between personal and collective trauma -and they outlined the work they were doing in Scotland to build towards a constitutional convention that would help to weave new democratic structures for an independent Scotland. Now they are weaving a new Gathering into being - an online week, bringing together people from all over the world to find new ways to be human in the 21st century - ways that will take us forward into a world that is regenerative for the human and more than human worlds. In their own words: "Reworlding is asking: how can we develop new decision making processes - and integrate with enduring ones - in order to collectively create a decolonised, just, empathic and regenerating world at every level?This is not a call to get involved in politics. This is a call to help create a new politics.Reworlding will bring together people who have:
experience of working with their own and others’ trauma, and/ or
experience of decision making systems that seek to enable a mutual world, and/ or
experience of resisting domination to protect and enable a just and regenerative world
This week is an exploration, a scouting out of what is already happening, and a searching ahead: imagining and working towards assembling a politics of wholeness, including through deepening our awareness of what colonises within and between us - and what liberates us."Links: More on the Gathering here: https://heartpolitics.squarespace.com
