our learnings? Wherever it was, what you learned about being a researcher has probably followed you ever since. Now as you hear the news you may find yourself analyzing what is going on and asking such questions as, “What does the world need now? What are
positive trends I can act on to help them become a reality?” The reality of <u>continuing to be researchers</u> and engaging others is behind our new name.</span></p>

The website feels a bit like the tip of an iceberg. Although we have spent years organizing files and now have put many of them on the website to share with the world, we wonder: </span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">These questions point to the intents we have for our virtual gathering. First we intend to dialogue together articulating life experiences and encounters with challenges like climate
change and the virus. Finally we seek to identify any clues of how our past could be a resource to the future. That is it. Two things: analyzing the present reality and bringing past wisdom into the conversation.</span></p>

collection. Each collection will be taped and have recorded notes to share with further working groups.
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">The dialogues will result in touching our hearts, creating new perspectives and identifying possible action steps. The documentation will be shared with colleagues in Asia who will participate
in a follow-up conference this summer.</span></p>
