As part of the second building block shared scared story (i.e. Critique and Vision) and led by the co-founder of Perspectiva, Dr. Jonathan Rowson, this portfolio of projects focuses on narratives, systems, and individual spiritual transformation in an intellectually skeptical European context. The collaboration will represent an intellectual and practical attempt to explore the sacred shared story from a different perspective consisting of research, dissemination, and retreat experiences based on the German concept of Bildung (a process of personal and cultural maturation). The Fetzer Institute, Perspectiva (the UK), and Ekskäret Foundation (Sweden) will work together over a period of three years to produce 2 books, 10 major research advocacy reports, 25 public events, 30 podcasts, 50 short films (including event recordings and interviews), 3 commissioned video animations, 6 academic papers, and 150 short online essays (blogs).
