If the way we’re operating in the world today is not leading to greater wellbeing for all involved, human and more-than-human, then how else could we be, work and collaborate together, across the divides of stories and sectors?
The World Ethic Forum is a vessel where we come together to learn from and inform each other, not just as individuals, but as a collective organism. Our guiding belief is that, if we tend to soil, there may be another way forward. For this, we have to go deep, slow down, and stay with the messiness: not rush to solutions, but understand, as a group, how we came to where we are.
Starting from a team of three, we grew into a larger group, inviting Firekeepers to join us. Those are people who, each in their own way, lead the way forward to shift culture from extractivism to a relational approach. From our interactions, a number of strands or themes of exploration have emerged: collective healing, diversity and inclusion, decolonisation, biospheres and bioregions, or how to even define ethics. Together, we’re engaged on a seven-year journey to work our way through those, in hope to ‘live, step by step, into the answer.’
