This webinar will explore ways to use WTR online to build community resilience. The Work That Reconnects is so needed in this time of the pandemic and the Great Unraveling. As facilitators, we can reach out to our local communities and neighborhoods to provide connection, inspiration, and a framework for moving into the Great Turning together. Using Work That Reconnects practices and concepts in an online setting, we can invite people to come together across the current physical distancing as well as across historic racial and social divides to find ways to support each other in harmony with our Mother Earth.  

We will share practices from Work That Reconnects and other sources that we have adapted to work online. We’ll also share suggestions for timing and structuring webinars using the Spiral that we have found work well, while mentioning pitfalls to avoid and offering templates for designing your own offerings. 

This webinar will be offered at two different times to accommodate all of the time zones we are in around the world.
