Event Description

Join us on Thursday, June 6th at 6:30PM as we continue our study of The Transition Companion, by Rob Hopkins. (review)

This month: Looking at "Part Four: How the Transition Movement does what it does- Ingredients for success" the section titled "Deepening". Topics included in this chapter are:

The Great Reskilling, How We Communicate, Financing Your Transition Initiative, Celebrate Failure, Local Food Initiatives, Personal Resilience, Healthy Conflict, and Education for Transition.

Come to the meeting with Three ideas you found inspiring generated from the readings in "Deepening" - either things you would like to more learn about, things you would be interested in teaching or things you would like to do as a work day with the group.

We will continue to meet on the first Thursday of the month until we are done with the book.

Ownership of the book would be helpful, but not necessary. If you have the earlier Transition Handbook, we will have some comparison between the two. Many important parts of the Transition Companion are available online as the Transition Ingredients.

If you'd like to purchase the book, please consider purchasing from the TW Bookstore page here (via Village Books). Purchases from our bookstore support both TW and our locally owned independent bookstore.

You can call Warren (650 380 3231) with any questions.

This is an Open Group. Drop-Ins are welcome!
