Community Weaving Model

in collaboration with
Together Institute

The Community Weaving Framework is an invitation to explore a question together: How can we weave healthy communities?

 

This framework hopes to provide shared language for community weavers and anyone bringing people together around a shared purpose. Through this, we to (re)learn what it takes to weave healthy communities and strengthen the relational webs across our shared home Earth.

​

This collaboration spans more than a transactional client - designer work. Alongside the core team, we iterated its many stages, spanning 1.5 years of experiment and sometimes, slow digestion of what emerged. In addition to the design work, I occasionally facilitate grounding practices and embodied communication in our meetings - with the intention that our collaboration and creative process embody the spirit of community weaving itself.
