DA  Facilitators News 10/17/21

Hello to all!

Please fill this doodle poll to choose the time for our next Facilitators general meeting: https://doodle.com/poll/py3zgpgd2cxsefb6. It will happen in two weeks from now. Currently there are time zones suitable for Australia and Oceania, but we hope that everyone will find at least one suitable option. We are making decisions together and building a community, so we hope you are able to participate. 

What determines who is a “DA Facilitator”? We made this decision during the last meeting (for a three months test period)! See DA Facilitators workgroups, meeting notes, and decisions here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12EW61Sdl7MYvq8FxBtd1gzECvSbcY6HNf7Ilt1Nwbb4 ; feel free to add your topics or proposals to the agenda of our next meeting!

Deep Live Gathering (https://futuref.org/deeplivegathering) has a lot of registrations from central Europe (Germany, France), but there is no host yet ready to gather and facilitate a live group. If you know somebody who might be interested, get in touch with Igor please!

Stay tuned for:

• A new events calendar, beta version to be released in the next week, we hope!

• DA Facilitation: initiation and deepening the practice - (a training/community of practice) - preparation in November/December, start in January.
