This is a series of blogs inspired by the Edinburgh International Centre for Sustainability and Peace, 2023 Forum: Connecting with Community in the 21st Centure: Spiritual, Social, Policy Perspectives. This was delivered by Marilyn Hamilton, March 1, 2023.

We have always believed “If you want to improve the health of a system connect it to more of itself.” This session will disclose the infinite but strategic ways you can nurture communities in the 21st century to connect to more of themselves.

Connecting Communities has been central to the evolutionary impulses that created Integral City Meshworks and is now growing Living Cities: Earth.

From the start we defined community as “a journey to wholeness for a group of people.”

In the last 2 decades our research has explored how to serve and influence communities of interest, communities of culture, communities of living, communities of practice and communities of Nature – online, in ecovillages and in cities and their ecoregions.

Let me share some examples of these community emergences from the Findhorn Ecovillage where I live.
