Whilst its roots are planted firmly in the theory of how children learn\, Think Like Nature puts the learner at the heart of their learning experience. From this fundamental platform\, we want to offer youth workers and subsequently children and young people the opportunity to engage with the rich natural diversity of the woodland environment to help build confidence\, sensitivity\, resilience and curiosity. We believe in the holistic learning process that aims to raise self-awareness and self-esteem in participants. As a result\, sessions will take place in a woodland environment\, where the landscape itself adds to the experience of learning. An outdoor element offers leadership and team problem solving challenges that allow to practice new behaviors in a supportive collaborative environment. \nThe ultimate goal of this project is to equip and inspire youth workers and youth leaders\, educators\, partners and other involved parties (especially communities) with a set of innovative methods and tools as part of the “Think Like Nature” framework\, so that to develop competences\, enhance work with target groups and further spread the non-formal methods. We want to deconstruct\, reconstruct and test with the participants the framework\, which is based on non-formal nature- and community- inclusive methods. This project is practical\, based on real problems and needs\, offering competences and skills that are applicable and transferable in participant’s personal life and work with youth. \nOBJECTIVES \n\nRaise the awareness of youth workers on the influence and importance of nature and outdoor activities as part of the education.\nPromote a non-formal nature-inclusive education as an important way to grow emotional and social intelligence\, leading to self-development and stronger community sense.\nEquip participants with the new concepts\, innovative tools and methods of “Think Like Nature” framework\nFacilitate discussions and activities to find out together methods\, actions and events\, which can boost youth’s self-awareness\, self-esteem\, self-development and consequently community development with the help of nature.\nEmpower youth workers and leaders to learn\, share and be able to teach others on “forest school” methodologies. We expect participants to apply the learned methodologies\, both theoretically and practically\, in their communities at home.\nDevelop participants’ competences and skills in learning systems of collaborative consumption\, co­-distribution\, co-working\, co-sharing and accompany them with practical examples when and where they can be used.\nCreate a collaborative environment\, where “Think Like Nature” framework will be both extensively discussed by participants\, but also new projects to further deepen\, develop or extend the topic be developed during and after the project.\nEngage with a educational project in deep connection with nature. Connect with the Romanian emerging permaculture community.\nConnect and relate with the Romanian traditional lifestyle.\n\nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\n \n\nYou are above 18 years old and from one of the partner countries: UK\, Romania\, Spain\, Lithuania\, Italy\, Malta\, Turkey;\nYou have a diverse background\, which could be a source of inspiration for others;\nYou are eager to gain new competences for your oragnization in the field of sustainability\, design thinking\, system thinking\, regenerative practices\, personal and community development with the help of non-formal method application outdoors;\nYou are youth educator\, worker\, project leader\, facilitator\, trainer\, NGO representative\, teacher\, volunteer\, staff member or other multipliers\, who are already involved in non-formal youth education\, outdoors education\, environmental and community projects\, and social work.\nYou want to learn “permaculture design”;\nYou seek to find new ways how to approach and motivate youth to be active and contribute to their community;\nYou want to share experience and help others to see new perspective and opportunities in their environment;\n\nPROGRAM \nDAY 0 (August 26): Arriving day.

It is the lack of authenticity that leads to bad faith and a loss of self\, ignoring crucial facts about our own lives in order to avoid uncomfortable truths. \nCelebration comes from the Latin “celebratus” which originally meant “an assembly to honour” and “a performance of a sacred act and thus is linked to the commemoration of our courage through the action we have taken and individually and collectively recognised and acknowledged. It leads from collective knowledge to the deeper reflective discernment into true wisdom. \nWhen we are doing projects it is important to act with authentic celebration in the process of the flow. This is a workshop that focuses upon the fourth step of the Dragon Dreaming meta methodology that demonstrates its resilience. \nAuthentic Celebration is the step that connects the Doing back to the Dreaming and links with the environment\, connecting it back to the initial stimulus of the individual which began the cyclic spiral process at the beginning. \nAuthentic celebration is a most important part of building the resilient path that leads to the wisdom that gets liberated for both collective projects and personal growth. It will assist any participant who is interested in discovering their own path to true wisdom\, in liberating their deepest authenticity. In this training people will learn how to celebrate and recognize themselves\, through their body\, and through their reflections. They will come to recognize “the other” and the world\, understanding the feedback processes and how to find the source of feedback in their projects\, unlocking and learning in authentic celebration. \nEnroll Here\nWORKSHOP FEE & ACCOMMODATION \nWORKSHOP FEE – 220€\nAccommodation is extra. \n6 x nights.

This work is the result of research drawn from the experience of many hundreds of collective projects and from the teaching of the Dragon Dreaming meta methodology around the world. We realize that Celebration is often neglected and at the same time is a most important tool our society urgently needs for the learning process\, both for ourselves and the others\, to create real possibilities for better world. \nNow more about Lizandra Barbuto \n \n\nNow more about John Croft URL:https://www.arise.education/event/dd-confest2017-romania-authentic-celebration/ LOCATION:Izvorul Muresului\, Izvorul Muresului\, Romania CATEGORIES:CONFEST2017 Romania,Dragon Dreaming,Personal Development ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.arise.education/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/AuthenticCelebration.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20170611 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20170620 DTSTAMP:20261021T022537 CREATED:20170218T111634Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170325T133053Z UID:25816-1497139200-1497916799@www.arise.education SUMMARY:Dragon Dreaming CONFEST2017 - International Biennial\, Romania DESCRIPTION:The Dragon Dreaming CONFEST is a biennial event that gathers activists and Dragon Dreaming practitioners from all around the world.

In a society where we can buy and sell almost anything so much of our life is influenced by our relationship with money itself. Many of us have deep blockages in dealing with money\, either in bringing it into our lives or feeling totally uncomfortable using it. This is part of a long history and cultural lineage of dis-balance\, scarcity\, abuse and suffering. \nWe will learn how to invite money into our lives and welcome it\, how to use it to manifest our deepest dreams that make our hearts sing and make a difference in the world. We will experience how a taboo can be turned into a tool to build more trust and connections with people in our lives. \nThe workshop will be experiential in the most vivid sense. It is a direct approach and we will practice what we learn right away. It is meant to take us out of our comfort zone and connect us deeply with our inner joy\, confidence and power when it comes to money. It is a space where we will care for vulnerability and honor each individual’s learning journey as well as the power of community to support transformation and empowerment. \nI invite you to join and break through whatever is holding you back from manifesting those dreams that hold your precious gifts for the World! \nFor Possibilities Managers. \nThis workshop is adapted for Possibilities Managers and will involve the PM context and tools to support the work needed for transforming our relationships with money deeply\, strongly and responsibly. The learning of the process and tools of Empowered Fundraising will be greatly boosted by using PM to deal with everything that has been holding us back until now. \nThe course starts the day after the PM Lab in Mallorca in May. To attend you need to have participated at least in a Expand the Box training before (one is being held before the Lab). \nOrigins of Empowered Fundraising \nThis workshop is part of the Dragon Dreaming methodology for project design and creation. \nThe EFR work originates from the work of Kathy Burke\, John Croft and others. The empowered fundraising method is both a tool for raising money but on a deeper level it is a healing and rewiring process around our relationship with money and its flow between ourselves and others. The focus is on using wealth to build community\, caring for people and planet and reinventing economy from the core outwards. \nCourse language \nThe course will be in English\, with translation support for German and Spanish if necessary. \nWorkshop Fee\n \nThe Price of the course will be the unique individual Balance Point of each participant. When learning and using Empowered Fundraising we will learn also to detect the ‘right amount’ for different situation. \nAs part of this learning experience you are invited to commit to pay for the workshop with your personal balance point which you will reveal to yourself during the workshop using tools that you will learn there. \nIn order to reserve places in the workshop we request payment of the booking fee (55€).

Your Calling and your Vulnerability. Get acquainted with the Art and Craft of GAIT (Guild of Agents for Intentional Transformation) – promoting transformation in organizations and complex social – ecological systems. \n“Train-in-GAIT” is a series of workshops for you who strive to transform the organization you work in\, the society you are a citizen of\, or the environment you live in.\nOur aim is to teach you how to increase the impact of your interventions\, while at the same time decrease the pain that your strivings cause in others and your own suffering when confronted with resistances. \nThis time we offer a two days workshop where you will be able to get acquainted with the GAIT model for transformational work in organizations and other social-ecological systems. During the first part of the workshop you will explore the core of the model: your deeper motivation to promote change. The second part you will get acquainted with the technical aspects of the model\, which will allow you to develop the art and craft of the Transformation Agent. \nYou can read about GAIT here: http://molini.es/es/what-is-gait/ \nThe workshop will be held in English\, with translation help when needed. \nPRICE/TRAINING FEES \n130 EUR/participant – payment before 27.01.2017 (at least 50 EUR deposit)\n150 EUR/participant – payment after 27.01.17.\nPlease book your place with a 50 EUR deposit.\n(Pls ask for the invoice and account). \nPlease stay with us for other details. \nORGANIZERS/BOOKINGS \nRomania in Tranzitie & Arise Education\nTo book your place\, please fill the REGISTRATION FORM\nFor more info or other details\, please contact:\nAdina M. Moise\nadinamc@gmail.com\, Tel: +40 742 034 342 \nPROGRAM \nPART 1 – “THE CORE OF YOUR MOTIVATION TO TRANSFORM AND CREATE. YOUR CALLING AND YOUR VULNERABILITY AS A CHANGE AGENT” \nYou persevere in your striving to transform the organization in which you work\, the society you are part of or the environment you live in. Despite the resistance you meet\, you want to promote changes beyond achieving specific goals. You maybe promote change from within an organization\, as a line manager\, staff or internal consultant. Or maybe you do that from the outside\, as an external consultant. You may also be a citizen committed to the change of the society or environment you live in. Whatever the position from which you promote change\, you have in common with many others that you are driven by an inner motivation that you cannot stop listening to. \nThis workshop will guide you to the core of your motivation\, your calling to transform. You will have the opportunity to listen to your calling\, to formulate it as a compelling message to the world\, to integrate it in your professional endeavor and to align it with your projects and contracts. \nPART 2: – “THE ART AND CRAFT OF PROMOTING CHANGE AND TRANSFORMATION IN ORGANIZATIONS AND OTHER COMPLEX SOCIAL-ECOLOGICAL SYSTEMS” \nYou will get acquainted with the basics of the art and craft that will allow you\, who are driven by a calling to transform\, to increase the effects and results of your interventions\, at the same time that you diminish the suffering that your efforts cause in those that will be affected by the changes you promote\, and the harm you may suffer when you meet the resistance. \nThe model follows five stages: Attention – Intention – Intervention – Withdrawal\, and five “arts and crafts”: \n1. Data harvesting through multiple channels and multiple scales of system.\n2. Formulation of change hypothesis.\n3. Depiction of a desired future through results and effects\n4. Design and facilitation of change/transformational processes and meetings.\n5. Withdrawal to the core of your motivation to transform and the organizations mission. \nApart from presenting the basic arts and crafts\, some participants will be invited to present real cases that they are currently working on\, giving all present the opportunity to apply what they have learned to real cases. \nABOUT EUGENIO MOLINÍ\, GAIT PROMOTER \nEugenio works since 1991 as a consultant specialized in the design and facilitation of change and transformational processes in organizations and social-ecological systems\, processes whose success depends on the collaboration of multiple stakeholders with multiple interests\, perspectives\, specialties\, disciplines\, cultures\, etc. His mission is to increase the effects and results of these processes\, while at the same time diminishing the pain that the resistances inflict on those who promote the changes\, and the suffering caused to those that will be affected by the changes. \nIn parallel to his consulting practice\, Eugenio launched GAIT – Guild of Agents for Intentional Transformation\, to support those who promote change and transformation of the organizations they work in and the social-ecological systems they live in. \nEugenio has worked and acquired his experience mostly in Sweden\, where he lived 1979 –2008. Apart from Europe\, he has designed and facilitated change processes in Africa and Latin America. He has worked with a great variety of clients: national\, multinational and transnational companies; bilateral and multilateral international organizations; national and local administrations; NGOs\, communities and networks. He lives in Spain since 2008\, but his work makes him travel over 200 days a year. \nhttp://molini.es/\nTwitter: Eugenio Moliní\nLinkedIn.com/in/eugeniomolini/es URL:https://www.arise.education/event/the-core-art-and-craft-of-the-agent-of-intentional-transformation/ LOCATION:Scoala Ferdinand I\, Bulevardul Gării Obor nr. 16\, Bucureşti\, sector 2\, Bucharest\, Romania CATEGORIES:Personal Development,Romania ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.arise.education/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/HomeScroller-Gait.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20170128T090000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20170129T170000 DTSTAMP:20261021T022538 CREATED:20161216T162233Z LAST-MODIFIED:20161221T135653Z UID:25708-1485594000-1485709200@www.arise.education SUMMARY:Open Heart - Celebrating 5 years of João Sem Medo\, Lisbon DESCRIPTION:“We want to bring people together\, we want to live in a more sustainable way\, we want to be happier.”\nFilipa Simoes \n5 years to be celebrated in a moment of sharing and (re)connection with the Collective Wisdom.

You won’t fight with the wolves but you will instead navigate your inner monsters so you get empowered in your life! \nThe Initiation Training are based on Possibility Management. This is a context that offers tools and thoughtmaps to attain tremendous clarity about ourselves and to make steps towards responsible adulthood. \nWhen you are responsible as an adult\, you have the freedom to choose what you want to do with your life. You are no longer a victim of your minds’ story of restrictions or of your fears. \nAre you ready? \nThen join us in the next Secret Giant training \n1st visit \nSECRETGIANT.ORG \n2nd read all the details in the \nPDF INFO DOC \nAbout the trainers \nMatteo and Ramona are international trainers working actively to inspire people and to enable them to discover and live to their full potential.\nTheir work consists in holding spaces for deep processes to foster personal development and empowerment in individuals and groups impacting personal and professional life. They also offer personal coaching to support individuals in life shifts\, big decisions\, purpose quest and meaningful job creation. \nRamona: \nThe word Re-connection has been my guidance in my exploration journeys around the globe. Re-connecting to the Earth as a living being. Re-connecting to my own inner world and higher purpose. For this I needed to look beyond the golden plate of mainstream society and find new tools to create new results that are more aligned with my true nature and vision for my life. To me\, Possibility Management is one of this powerful and authentic doorways to regaining access to my feelings\, my passion and a more purpose driven life. \nMatteo: \n“What is my true purpose?” \nWith this question in my heart years ago I left my home to start a journey of discovery. Passionately I’ve been seeking the answer\, living in more than 30 countries and exploring different way of living.\nDuring this adventure I encounter Possibility Management\, the context that offered me safe and amazing spaces to discover my own authenticity\, power and healing. \nToday my purpose is strong and clear: to give back what I learned\, supporting individuals\, groups and organizations to connect with their source and from there to act and create the life they are longing to live.\nI do this delivering extraordinary training\, offering personal coaching and creating grassroots initiatives to support the movement towards a Next Culture. \nDiscover more visiting www.matteotangi.com URL:https://www.arise.education/event/secret-giant-training/ LOCATION:Center of Unity Schweibenalp\, Brienz\, 3855 \, Switzerland CATEGORIES:Expand The Box,Personal Development,Possibility Management,Secret Giant,Switzerland ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.arise.education/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/SG-header.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Bucharest:20160918T100000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Bucharest:20160918T180000 DTSTAMP:20261021T022538 CREATED:20160905T200203Z LAST-MODIFIED:20160906T093017Z UID:25493-1474192800-1474221600@www.arise.education SUMMARY:Feeling Alive - Bucharest DESCRIPTION:Atelierul va fi in limba engleza cu traducere la nevoie. \nWe are taught from childhood that ‘to feel’ is bad\, that we should not express our emotions. They say “Real men don’t cry and angry women are ugly”\, so we learn to numb our feelings and to keep our lives numbed as well. \nTo survive in this world we inhibit ourselves. We numb our feelings\, we hide and make ourselves small\, and then\, when it is really too much we explode\, we burst into uncontrolled rage\, or go in deep depression. Finally\, when we go back to lucidity\, out of our emotional trance\, we regret what we did.\nIs this familiar to you? Have you experienced anything like this?. \nTHE WORKSHOP \nIn this workshop we will allow ourselves to feel\, to experience our emotions flowing in our bodies and consciously get to know them\, and become clear of what happens inside of us. \nThe purpose of this workshop is to stop numbing ourselves\, and use the safe space that we will create to allow our feelings to be expressed\, and stop being slaves to them\, and instead use the energy and the life force in them. \nWe will begin with anger\, through conscious and responsible expression\, using the power to say yes\, say no\, start things\, stop things\, take decisions\, set boundaries\, keep promises\, maintain integrity\, ask what you want and ultimately activating the archetypal force of conscious rage inside of us. Activate the archetype of the the Bright Warrior. \nTHE CONTEXT \nThe workshop will be held using the powerful tools of Possibility Management\, the cutting edge approach to personal growth. A holistic approach involving the emotional\, energetic\, physical and intellectual bodies.\nMore information at www.possibilitymanagement.com. \nTHE TRAINER \nMatteo Tangi is an international trainer who works passionately in supporting people and companies in finding their true purpose and unfolding their potential.
