Offering a new vision with “What if…?”
Offering a new vision with “What if…?”
We really do have a crying need for a more human and humane response to the many challenges currently experienced in our social world. Robyn Penman’s substack series, “What if…?” offers a response to this need, driven by a profound sense of our responsibility to others as the primary ethic. Her latest posts have focused on issues of social justice and the social change process, offering a new vision based on a radical relationality. Help keep these ideas inspired from CMM and a communication perspective alive and in discussion by subscribing.
A Legacy Fund for Marit Eikaas Haavimb
A Legacy Fund for Marit Eikaas Haavimb
Marit Eikaas Haavimb was central to our ongoing vision of the Cosmo line of educational activities. Start with very young children and teach them how to have thoughtful, meaningful, and relationship-centered conversations. Then normalize these kinds of conversations and ways of being with others, so these children will grow up equipped to work together. That kernel of a vision has led to an entire line of educational conversational activities. In honor of her contribution and to ensure her legacy will live on, we have created a fund in Marit’s name. We invite your support.
