Nurturing Hope: Mutuality, action, and the gift of listening

Social beings asking “How now?”, we must imagine, care for and attend to what matters. This stream explores how hope can be nurtured collectively through listening with others, creating relationships, and exploring practical possibilities, while also attending to the differences in power and structures that shape the possibilities and limits of collective hope.

From Place Grief to Belief: holding space for profound urban change. My graduation student Jenny Lin and I came up with this Time Tunnel. It invites people to think of they want to let go off in this particular neighborhood and what they would like to take with them into the future.
