Idealist Day 11/11 Common Ground Gathering (Virtual)
A global conversation for those seeking depth, difference, and a space for shared understanding.
Step into the 11/11 Common Ground Gathering for a lively hour of thought-provoking queries, unexpected answers, and the kind of conversations that gently scramble your assumptions to widen your perspective. Hosted as part of Eleanor Fuller's traveling Commonalities Across Cultures series, this gathering connects communities through common ground. If you have been craving real exchange beyond the usual small talk, to build peace across perspectives, this is a space to bring your curiosity and see where it leads.
Through open-ended prompts, we will explore our blind spots, notice the stories we carry, and learn about ourselves by listening to others. We welcome voices from all walks of life; the more diverse the room, the deeper and more valuable the exchange becomes. Through these discussions, we will discover the nuances in which we each specialize and the commonalities that quietly connect us. Every answer and interpretation becomes part of the shared ground we build together. This shared understanding is what will sustain conflict and help build continuous, positive impact for peace.
This event will be held virtually and is open to anyone, anywhere. Every attendee is invited to practice common ground leadership by extending the conversation beyond this gathering and into your communities. We will learn that we all have the potential to make this world a better place. Collaboration and care will always take us further than competition and conflict ever can.
Come ready to listen, reflect, laugh a little, and maybe catch yourself thinking in ways you may not considered before. Take part in a conversation that might just stretch your perspective in all the right directions.
