Introduction

Feeling so gifted to be welcomed into this community. Deeply grateful, and very excited about journeying with you all. I come from a tiny, remote, non-intentional community focused on sustainability and tight knit community in the northern mountainscape of lutruwita (Indigenous name for Tasmania in Australia). We are a community of organic growers/farmers and homeschooling families bordering a World Heritage Area. Our location, though exquisite, makes us vulnerable to deepening climate change, and this awareness has triggered a rapid change preparedness program addressing ecological health and modification, food and water security, infrastructure maintenance, and social prepping. Although I am involved in all these areas of preparedness and am mostly interested in social prepping and what kind of relationality we need to grow for ongoing community resilience. Hence my interest in the IDGs.

I have a background in anthropology and have been training in social permaculture and Cultural Emergence. The IDGs fit so snugly with these learnings and I very eager to skill up in them not only for my own personal embodiment but also to grow a community of practice as part of our preparedness, and for project life to be plugged into. However, I am also keen to offer presentations, workshops and retreats further afield too. I am affiliated with a sustainability hub in our greater region and have more recently been listed on a registrar for a 20 year strategy plan in preventative health. This is an exciting platform from which to spread the word about IDGs! Looking forward to any opportunity to learn more.

Warmest, liana
