Flourishing Diversity Listening Sessions highlight the urgent need for industrialised societies to listen to Indigenous communities, by creating the platform for Western leaders and wider audiences to quietly, respectfully, and intentionally listen to their perspectives and lived experiences.
The vast majority of the world’s remaining biodiversity can be found in the territories of Indigenous and land-based communities. As we collectively explore how to live in harmony with the rest of nature, can a starting place be listening to those who live in cultures that support the flourishing of their diverse ecosystems?
Starting in 2019, Flourishing Diversity developed this unique approach to amplifying marginalised voices with profound insight to share to help imagine alternative ways of addressing the current ecological crisis. The Listening Session format has been influential and lives on in events hosted by Synchronicity Earth and others.
Please disperse these teachings wherever there is fertile ground.
