Growing Our Children for Intentional Sustainable Living

Presenters: Albert Whitcombe
Audiences: Emerging Communities, Thriving Communities, Cohousing Professionals
Time: Saturday 10:00-10:45

Intergenerational family and community relationships and mentoring have become almost extinct, yet we have a broad understanding of the effect in our communities and the world for this lack. One of the great challenges in healing this process is the lack of effective process to support these relationships in our all-too-fast-paced lifestyles. All too often our efforts result in frustration, and we do not succeed in our hopes. Yet the challenge of dealing with an uncertain future for our children depends on them doing their best in relationships with each other and with the whole of the Biosphere. Healing the mentoring process – that is our work.
