What is community? What do we need to know about each other in order to trust each other? What are some of the structures that support feeling held and nurtured by groups of people?
What are some of the communities you have been part of? What kind of influence and life habits does/did being part of this community create in you? What did it allow you to do, and what did it make you stop doing? What brought you together and what sets you apart? Have there been disagreements or difficulties, and how have you dealt with them? What have you learned as a group about being together in a supportive way?
We are interested to hear your experiences related to being part of a community that was a site of care, a site of learning or even a site of misery. We wish to curate a set of written pieces about the specific agreements, actions, feelings and ways of doing or the lack of these that contribute to or hinder nurturing group environments.
The contributions will be made available online on our website. They may be written in any language. Maximum length: one page.
Please send your contributions to community@wyv.art
