Awakening the Dreamer Community Groups
Community Groups are an ever-expanding network of global citizens who are inspired, supported, and committed to environmental sustainability,social justice and spiritual fulfillment. These self-generating groups allow people to connect locally and expand each individual’s impact by getting into action with others, focusing primarily on bringing the Symposium to their locales.The groups foster a place for new conversations and for groundbreaking ideas to germinate that not only empower us individually but also empower our communities. Community Groups cultivate a sense of joy and belonging that follows when we come into alignment with each other and the Earth.
