Capilano Universe: Unlocking the Power of the Communal Self
Explore focusing on connection can help build stronger communities and better education systems.
In today's world, education and society often emphasize individualism, fostering a culture of competition and self-reliance. Yet, we are inherently communal beings, interconnected with those around us, our environment, and the broader ecosystem of life. This workshop, rooted in the philosophy of Educating for Connection, challenges the modern conception of the 'self-made' individual by exploring the concept of the 'communal self.'
