Intergenerational Pioneering wiki
This is placeholder for content to be co-edited here by participants of intergenerational initiatives.
A wiki is a collection of web pages that all users can directly edit and easily link among, without the help of a webmaster and without knowing (HTML) codes. Wikiwiki means fast, in Hawaiian.
The biggest example of collaboration in wiki is Wikipedia; more info on wiki there.

Structure of these wiki-pages
Streamlining all papers and texts that are produced in our wide
community is not an easy job! You can help this by pointing your text
to the right "parent" - see the box below the title box.
AND! As more and more content will be published we will all enjoy the use of tags.
Tags are free categories that you relate with, apply to your text. Keep
in mind that later on, people will use these tags to find the kind of
text that you are producing now. Act individually, but think
community!!

ntergenerational gahering,
Greece, Sept. 2008. Pioneers of Change (the network) is inviting
pioneers of all ages to celebrate with them their 10th anniversary.
Here you can read how it all started…
These are the
guiding questions:
What happens when pioneers across generations and networks meet in a space of generative dialogue, co-creation and celebration?
What emerges when those of us who sense the new life bring our stories together?
What would we see when we sit in our diversity and wholeness, connected to the Earth, sensing the emergent future?

Birthing a New Cultural Paradigm - INTERGEN GATHERING DEC 7-9, 2007
"This intergenerational collaboration will be an open, compassionate process, modeling the ability to collectively hold a multiplicity of viewpoints and paradigms. Our fusion can serve as a living example of a higher consciousness field that contributes to a system-wide social transformation."
If we gather multiple generations in one location, open to our shared brilliance and release set patterns so we breathe as one, we might awaken minds and enliven hearts to transform society.
One-day conference on November 12th, 2007 hosted by Intergenerational Strategies. Their keynote speaker will be Donna Butts, Executive Director of Generations United, who will speak about best practices in the growing intergenerational field.

It was a small gathering held in October 2007 at Juanita Brown's and David Isaacs' house, the birthing place of the World Cafe. It was an inspiring exploration into the questions and issues surrounding the intergenerational field, along with looking into the potential of a World Cafe 2.0. Plans are underway for future events of a similar nature.
