Are you concerned about the state of our world today and want to make a real difference right where you live, but don’t know how or where to start? Have you already started making change in your local community, but would like to connect with other regenerative leaders for peer-to-peer learning and mutual support? Or have you been involved in this kind of work for decades now, but continue to seek out further knowledge and inspiration?

Wherever you’re coming from, you’re invited to join Transition Network International, New Society Publishers, and Don Hall, author of The Regeneration Handbook: Transform Yourself to Transform the World, this summer for a free 11-week discussion course. Each 90-minute live Zoom meeting will feature additional commentary on that week’s reading, as well as opportunities to ask questions, participate in breakout group discussions, and engage in transformational practices.

You’re welcome to participate as an individual or a group, and in case you need to miss a session, recordings will be made available. If you don’t already have a copy of The Regeneration Handbook, you can purchase a paperback or e-book version at a 20% discount here using the code “Regeneration20” at checkout.
