EMERGING EARTH
BALI 2026
Our political and economic institutions are crumbling, after taking the Earth's natural systems to breaking point. This is the metacrisis, born from broken stories about who we are in relationship to each other and the earth.
In the collective, narratives of separation, domination and fear are the only stories that are amplified. We have inherited a world built on them and they shape us, what we build, what we value, what we think is possible.
Building new systems starts with healing the narratives both within us and outside us. By recovering the stories that were there before, stories of humans being inherently collaborative, caring and living in the right relationship we can begin to birth the stories that reflect worlds we want to inhabit.
