Bilbao, 48013, Basque Country, Spain

LUR GOZOA, Platform for Conscious Citizenry and MIRRA, Association for Woman’sLeadership wish to gather the Citizenry for this Unconference so we may be inspiredby the experiences of “Dreamers in Action” and participate, as well, in a process of Creative Dialog that will focus on two key areas:

Education : We speak of education for all ages and in the ample sense of the word - lifelong education, education for citizen participation, education to “learn to learn”, andso be prepared, regardless of age, to live in a world other than the one we now live in;we speak of education for a new kind of relationship among ourselves and withNature…

Economy : We want to promote the emergence of an economy in which moneybecomes a means and a consequence rather than an end in itself, an economy thatcreates wealth, an inclusive economy in which abundance and prosperity for all don’tpresent a threat for a few. An economy that values the caring work so essential for oursurvival - as a civilization and as inhabitants of Planet Earth...
