Heartfelt connections are the essence of Warm Data Labs, which brings together people from all walks of life to share, listen, reflect, notice and explore.
Warm Data Labs have been described as a "kaleidoscope of conversations," woven with enlivening stories, shared complexity and insight that nourish the soul. Helping to transform the ways we approach life, our communities while creating space for new relationships to deepen and flourish. This provides broader perspectives to better make sense of the complex times we live in.
Moving between small group constellations, we’ll share stories and reflections, engaging across contexts (like education, family, health, ecology, technology...) to see and feel new connections we may not see alone.
You don't need to prepare; bring yourself and perhaps a friend or two
Tea will be provided. You are welcome to bring snacks to share.
After the Lab, we invite you to stay for conversations and communing over a potluck dinner – please bring a plate of food to share.
When: Saturday 28th February, 3 - 5pm
Where: Narara Ecovillage, 33 Gugandi Road

SUNDAY 1ST MARCH
7:30am Morning meditation
10:00am ♻️ Circular Economy Collage Workshop
Discover how we can shift from a linear “take–make–waste” model to a truly circular economy!
Join us for a fun and collaborative Circular Economy Collage — a 3-hour interactive workshop designed to help participants understand our current production and consumption patterns and explore practical solutions for building a more sustainable future.
Working in small groups, you’ll use a set of illustrated cards to piece together the key concepts, challenges, and opportunities of the circular economy. Together, we’ll connect the dots, identify action levers, and reflect on how we can apply circular thinking in our personal lives, workplaces, and communities.
Whether you’re new to the topic or already familiar with circular economy, this workshop offers a hands-on and engaging way to deepen your understanding and spark new ideas for change.
This is a public session by People For Nature, facilitated by Jenni Phillipe.
