Today, we look around and see a world with escalating conflicts, increasing polarity, and competing truths. Narratives of loss and processes of dehumanization are being accepted as part of our everyday lives. We are therefore called to ask:
How might we reach across the deepening divisions in society?
* How are we each involved in the story of difference and division and how might we change it?
* What personal and collective capacities can support me and us in bridging these divides?
* How am I called to step forward now?
A group of 125 people from 27 different countries gathered in Karlskrona around the questions and conversations of bridging divisions. They arrived with gifts of courage, openness and curiosity to connect to one another, to dive into practice, to explore a world of possibility, and to step forward with the capacities for wiser action. Here we share the harvest from our journey together along this chaordic path.
