#ROOTSANDDREAMS MANIFESTO!

20 August 2018

THE ROOTS AND DREAMS MANIFESTO is a call to re-imagine the concept of  TOGETHERNESS in light of the abundance of individual identities.

We want to engage in an OPEN, organic and COLLECTIVE WRITING process with each and every respondent. To create a STORY that truly BELONGS TO US ALL, we need to write not within a restricted group, but with ANYONE who shares our VALUES and cherishes HUMAN DIGNITY and DIVERSITY.

No matter how DIFFERENT our ROOTS, it is from them that we grow our DREAM of togetherness. Let’s our stories come together, our roots intertwine, and from this entanglement make a whole new garden full of wonder and POSSIBILITIES.

The FUTURE is OURS.

The choices we make today will shape the WORLD of tomorrow – the time has come to develop our thoughts and actions in a way that is truly collective.

JOIN US!

We INVITE you to take part, PLANT YOUR SEED by adding YOUR VOICE to the Roots and Dreams Manifesto.

Allthoughts, IDEAS, VISIONS and DREAMS are  WELCOME!*
