Beakonmunity
The beakonmunity initiative is a monthly meeting point that we started aiming at sharing thoughts, concerns, ideas and feelings as well as at inspiring each other to bring the changes our world needs. In such overwhelming and challenging environmental and socio-political circumstances we are experiencing, we decided to explore our needs for expression and connection within these open meetings constituting an alternative form of a support group.
What are these meetings?
- A space for sharing
- An opportunity to connect
- A way to explore our needs
What do we want to happen?
- A reference point
- A constant connection
- An empowered community
What do we need?
- Your participation
- Your feedback
- Your willingness to share
The initiative is open to:
- To young people who feel pressure from the climate crisis and developments
- To citizens who want to express themselves and meet others with common environmental concerns
- To people involved in environmental actions and want mental empowerment or relief
- To educators, professionals and activists who are looking for a place of meaningful connection
Your benefits:
- A sense of community and camaraderie in a world that often isolates us
- Ability to express and release emotions, without fear and shame
- Strengthening mental resilience and giving meaning to the personal role in change
- Inspiration from other experiences and cultivating empathy
- Building bonds and relationships with people who share similar values and concerns
