These calls are designed to bring together Pachamama Alliance participants, leaders, and supporters who are actively engaged in creating a shift in humanity to a worldview that honors and sustains life. The intention is that by coming together and grounding in this vision, you will leave the call feeling inspired and supported in your work.
At times the political barriers to bringing forth an environmentally sustainable, spiritually fulfilling, socially just human presence on this planet can seem insurmountable. But as Frances Moore Lappé says, “It isn’t the magnitude of the challenge that crushes the human spirit, it’s feeling useless.”
Join her and Pachamama Alliance Co-founder Bill Twist to explore the real possibilities for a democracy movement that supports human flourishing and a mutually enhancing human-Earth relationship—and the thrill that comes with being on that journey.
Frances Moore Lappé is the author or co-author of 19 books about world hunger, living democracy, and the environment, beginning with Diet for a Small Planet in 1971. Her most recent book, Daring Democracy, explores the ways in which the democracy movement aims to fulfill on human needs for agency, meaning, and connection.
Bill Twist is a Pachamama Alliance Co-founder and the current CEO. He has dedicated his life to helping change the dream of the modern world to create a thriving, just, and sustainable future for people and all life.
