Work That Reconnects with Joanna Macy

Joanna Macy is a beloved scholar of Buddhism, general systems theory, and deep ecology, who interweaves her scholarship and contemplative practice with five decades of activism. Her group methods, known as the Work That Reconnects, have been adopted and adapted in classrooms, churches, and grassroots organizing. The Work That Reconnects helps people transform despair and apathy in the face of overwhelming social and ecological crises into constructive, collaborative action. It brings a new way of seeing the world as our larger living body, freeing us from the assumptions and attitudes that now threaten the continuity of life on Earth. Joanna provides thought leadership and mentorship to an international network of facilitators.
