Our 2019 Gathering Theme
Beyond agenda: nurturing purpose.
Group meetings usually have an agenda. The agenda provides a framework for decision making. An agenda creates order and safety.
However, many groups fail to identify their purpose: why we are here, what is our intention, what is important to us. Without a purpose a group is purposeless.
Individuals can have an agenda. They can also have a purpose. Without a clear purpose a person’s interactions with others can be unclear or even experienced as manipulative.
A purpose comes first. When the purpose is clear the agenda will follow.
With a clear purpose, individuals and groups can be potent.

Family friendly
Heart Politics is an all ages gig. Young people attending with their parents are welcome to participate in all parts of the gathering - we respect their autonomy and are also conscious of the needs of young people and their families. We provide two Young People’s Facilitators who hold a space especially catering for the needs of younger participants. This is co-created and a super fun place where all-ages, play-based activities happen.
