🔥 Campfire gathering with professor Keri Facer 🔥
“Listening brings humans into being” – Lisbeth Lispari
As we are faced with multiplying crises, we often rush into trying to fix the world through words and busy action. What if an adequate response is to simply listen? What new worlds can be made, what wounds can be healed, through listening deeply?
Professor and storyteller Keri Facer writes that “To listen is to allow the world to touch us, change us.”
In this FoT live podcast, we gather around the fire to explore what true listening really means.
Co-hosted by the Society for Transformative Conversations and CEMUS.
