Updates: One year on... Moral Imaginations is one year old

A year ago, the world and our lives stopped, changed, paused and the "normal" way of doing things fell into question. And one year ago today, we launched Moral Imaginations to the outside world with the invitation into a story, Impossible Train Story. The metaphor of a train invited people into a liminal space part story/part present-day reality that gave them the space to play, imagine and confront what was happening in weird, wyrd and wonderful ways.

One whole year has gone past... And we've developed a process, methodology, and hosted around 400 people through making sense of these times and meaning-making, building a field of relationship based on shared imaginal realms. Newer and unexpected people and groups keep showing up, appearing, resonating - we have worked with incredible communities on the ground, academic research groups, professional groups and large institutions.

This is our manifesto: https://medium.com/.../a-manifesto-for-moral-imagination... of who we are and what we have been doing. We have been incredibly lucky to be supported by Unbound Philanthropy in developing this work further, as an approach to build post-COVID narratives and cross-partisan conversations and sensemaking. And a big thank you also to our partners Onion Collective with whom we've been working over the past 6 weeks, and Foresight Institute for their continued encouragement and support. Thank you also to many more, many of you tagged, who supported in the early months of the pandemic, with conversations, help, suggestions, support, inspiration and keeping the energy going.

Thank you especially to Joanna Macy and Nora Bateson and their work, for they have inspired a lot of what I do today.
