Freedom’s Revival

Next River, in collaboration with The Network, is hosting a workshop on Freedom Revival to celebrate the Women's History Month. This two-hour Next River workshop introduces the framework of interconnected freedom and its four elements: mutuality, pragmatic faith, embodiment, and transformation. In a creative container, we will help participants from the GBV space unearth their inherent knowledge of interconnected freedom to deepen their thinking and feeling about what it means to get free and to invest in shared practices of collective liberation.

This virtual workshop will be held by Next River’s Lead Facilitator Aáron Heard.
