Peacebuilding and Codes for a Healthy Earth with Dot Maver

The National Peace Academy‘s understanding of peace is shaped by the definition contained in the Earth Charter: “…peace is the wholeness created by right relationships with oneself, other persons, other cultures, other life, Earth, and the larger whole of which all are a part.” Building peace begins with the interdependent and dynamic interrelationships between and among all organisms and their surroundings in a living system, and requires that we actively strive to establish right relationships with Earth and its ecosystems. Learn how to build peace with Codes for a Healthy Earth and Peace Activist, Dot Maver.

A Deeper Kind of Revolution with Charles Eisenstein

The urgent and complex global challenges we face will not be resolved from within the same systems and consciousness that created them. Many of the proposed solutions to climate change rely on the same thinking that brought us to the crisis, and cannot move us forward. Charles Eisenstein suggests the ecological crisis is calling us to a deeper kind of revolution. Its strategy involves restoring what the modern worldview and its institutions have rendered nearly extinct: our felt understanding of the living intelligence and interconnectedness of all things.

His viral short films and essays online have established him as a genre-defying social philosopher and countercultural intellectual. A graduate of Yale, he is the author of The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know is Possible, Sacred Economics, The Ascent of Humanity, and Climate: A New Story.
