Marna Hauk, PhD directs the Institute for Earth Regenerative Studies in the Pacific Northwest and guides graduate learners at Prescott and Southwestern Colleges. She uses the Work that Reconnects to facilitate climate justice and Gaian resilience social incubators as well as to support sustainability educators, creatives, ecofeminists, and regenerative designers in reclamation, resilience, and regeneration. With over 90 peer-reviewed presentations and publications, Dr. Hauk integrates living wisdom traditions, creativity, poetry, and ecorestoration with the Work that Reconnects to catalyze Gaian resurgence.
Why I am called to facilitate the Work
Called by the ancestral and future beings to catalyze the catalysts during this time of the Great Turning, I arrive at this work.
How I see the Work serving the Great Turning
I appreciate how the Work that Reconnects responds to the deep longing in so many who sense the perils and opportunities of our time. The powers of the work: experientially immersive, intergenerationally connective, deeply embodied, and relationally healing. The spare, clear, and evocative dimensions and expansive understandings of self, community, horizontal power-sharing, and time that the Work that Reconnects awakens are reparative and regenerative. I enjoy creating circles of group genius and teaching teachers and nurturing and sustaining visionary-activists inspired by this work. The Work that Reconnects liberates energy and momentum and creating culture for the Great Turning. Active Hope is a particular poignant set of resources for affirming the potential and transformative strengths of those engaged in energizing the Great Turning.
