Building Community for the New Planetary Culture
Evolver Vancouver is a part of the Evolver Network which has been growing over the past 3 years in 40+ regions worldwide. During those past 3 years we have shared in the exploration of topics that affirm the paradigm shift happening locally and globally. We have spotlighted local and global projects going on and offered opportunities for people to meet face to face and potentially co-create further together.
We invite you to participate in a collaborative social experiment, a culture lab where we will direct social capital towards:
-Bringing together cultural envoys whose combining of efforts could benefit the future of Vancouver through its diverse networks.
-Focusing on the efforts that will generate planetary culture while strengthening local resiliency ethically with an emphasis on reskilling, food security, locally produced goods and exchange of skills and services.
-Linking generations
In the past we have been able to do monthly gatherings but to maintain that momentum has been a challenge. We will be striving towards now doing seasonal gatherings which contribute to project-based initiatives in between the seasonal events along with other events such as film screenings.
