Dear Colleagues, (Please do not reply directly to this list. See below.) April 16, 2020
The Covid-19 pandemic has shifted our world, including our desire to be the new reality of the ICA Social Research Center, housing the work of sixty years of EI/ICA archives. Everything
now is changed and will be different in the future. We see ourselves in dialogue with what is happening in the world today while identifying our past- archived wisdom that may be informative to the present. We want to link with the many efforts to articulate
a new story, a new paradigm that is emerging for our time
From the comfort of your home and computer, you are invited to join with one or more of the collection teams during our virtual ICA Social Research Center Spring Gathering. Imagine two
hour blocks of time on the collection(s) of your choice:
· Overall: What is
going on in the world today in this area? What do we see emerging from our experiences of the past few months?
· Reviewing the collection: What
questions are raised for you as we look at this collection? What are the gifts of this collection that will sustain and support the new which is being birthed? Beyond our past accomplishments, what did we learn that is informative to today? What additions
and changes could be made to this collection for public understanding?
ICA SOCIAL RESEARCH CENTER - VIRTUAL SPRING GATHERING
Daily time for joining the collection dialogues:
We invite you to join us for any or all of the collection dialogues May 10-13. Please contact one of the collection guides you wish to dialogue with to receive the link for being included
