Collaboration Incubator *18 Report #1
The Collaboration Incubator is a participatory format, where you can learn about ‚social technologies‘ - mainly group facilitation processes - which integrate activism and intuition. The aim of the program is to figure out ways to support each other in what we are currently working with – as part of a movement, an organization or as individuals. Related to that, we are also using the group's creativity and intelligence to look at a bigger shared question: „How to help building momentum for global grassroots democracy?“. With this idea in mind, we were inviting people who feel dedicated to progressive movements and/or progressive ideas around changing things from the ground up. The report has an emphasis on the most recent incubator in Oakland, California, since a local funding from TRCC thrivingresilience.org enabled it. It builds on and integrates content, learning and experiences of the two previous Berlin incubators. It’s a years’ report.

Presencing<br />
by Carolyn Whitten<br />
May 2018<br />
When we did the social presence theater, we were like<br />
children<br />
who had clambered to the topsoftrees<br />
laughing and swinging.<br />
we saw the ground’s truths<br />
below us<br />
and we wondered at the galaxies that * yet could be *<br />
above our heads.<br />
By the end of the day, we had slid<br />
down to the thickest foliage<br />
each tucking in at a familiar negotiation between branch and trunk.<br />
Some had fallen, others clung fast,<br />
stretching hands to the discouraged,<br />
to scramble skywards again.<br />
Can we see each other, still, through the dense, dark, green ?<br />
if not, we will hum a melody<br />
that echoes in the night<br />
We will sing - and the forest will sing back to us.
