Bienvenue en Belgique!
Welkom in België!
Willkommen in Belgien!
Welcome in Belgium!
Cross-pollination took place in the Hungarian hive. A seed clung onto the the Belgian wings. It flew over borders. Carried by the winds. And finally dropped onto the Belgian soil. A soil composed of rich relational nutrients. It now needs tending and watering. And while we wait for our shoot to grow We cherish the perspective of harvesting the fruits with the community…

The program will mostly unfold in English. Yet, inclusion is a focus for our network. Many ways can be found for translation; it is common practice for people to sit side by side and translate simultaneously as the session unfolds.
As usual, there will be workshops before and after the gathering. Click here and scroll to the bottom of our invitation to learn about The Whole Program.
