Permaculture for Refugees — through the Spiral of The Work That Reconnects

Climate Change and Consciousness (CCC19) is an international conference to accelerate regenerative responses to the climate crisis. Through education, mentorship, leadership development, supporting indigenous-led projects, and cultivating an international community of skilled activists, CCC is a nexus of inner transformation and socially responsible, high-impact climate activism.

As senior students of Joanna Macy, environmental philosopher, systems theorist and root teacher of The Work That Reconnects, Marguerite Kahrl and Dr. Kathleen Sullivan offer a unique view on Permaculture for Refugees. Using the Spiral of the Work That Reconnects, our presentation will move through four stages —
Gratitude
Feeling our Pain for the World
Seeing with New Eyes
Going Forth

999. A collection of questions about contemporary living

2018
HOMEMAKER: the practice of dwelling”, installation.
Triennale of Milan
January 12 – April 2, 2018

The Triennale di Milano presents 999: A Collection of Questions on Contemporary Living, an exhibition conceived and curated by Stefano Mirti.

MARGUERITE KAHRL, “HOMEMAKER: the practice of dwelling” working model (2018)

Suspended models of dwellings question the notion of home as a fixed and delineated place. Instead these handcrafted signifiers of ‘home’ reference domestic practices, which build on the sense of belonging.

Being and feeling at home is a process of making, intertwined with routines, objects, shelter, and community. Shifting the focus from a closed space to the practice of dwelling helps us to consider belonging as more of an open and social process.

The exhibition consists of a series of questions on the places of our lives, and it illustrates the theme of housing as we have never seen it before. The exhibition is a sweeping investigation of the concept of house and home, living and dwelling, on the borderline between the physical and digital worlds. It is a journey through new realms of the imagination, which are transforming our lives. It is an innovative, wide-ranging, collaborative, and ever-changing exhibition, which evolves in space and time.
