Before diving into the many practices offered in this toolkit, we suggested engaging with these two introductory talks that aim to help us clear the space for collective imagination work to feel possible, and orient us to our surroundings \u2013 Farzana\u2019s talk connects us to the land, our bodies, our rituals and ancestors while Azul\u2019s talk walks us through both visible and invisible contemporary social structures. Both talks can be seen as key texts to provide context to the work of collective imagination.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

So, let\u2019s ground \u2013 in the polycrisis \/ metacrisis of this moment, in our ancestral traditions, and in the deep thinking that will pull us through this work and into a new present, as well as a new future.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Listen here to Farzana Khan\u2019s talk on how we can prepare the ground for engaging in the work of collective imagination, by aligning with our minds, bodies, spirits, and the land. She draws inspiration from and makes connections between collective grief rituals, song and dance, Sufi chanting, and other ancestral technologies that can support us to process our emotions, resolve conflict, and connect across geographies.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
