Join Us at the Bioneers Conference
When: Friday October 14 through Sunday October 16, 2011
Where: Marin Center, San Rafael, CA
What is Bioneers?
Founder Kenny Ausubel coined the term Bioneers in 1990 to describe an emerging culture. Bioneers are social and scientific innovators from all walks of life and disciplines who have peered deep into the heart of living systems to understand how nature operates, and to mimic "nature's operating instructions" to serve human ends without harming the web of life. Nature's principles—kinship, cooperation, diversity, symbiosis and cycles of continuous creation absent of waste—can also serve as metaphoric guideposts for organizing an equitable, compassionate and democratic society.
The Bioneers Conference is a leading-edge forum where you can see tomorrow today: a future environment of hope. Social and scientific innovators focus on breakthrough solutions inspired by nature and human ingenuity. These visionaries are already creating the healthy, diverse, equitable and beautiful world we want to live in—our legacy for future generations and the web of life on which our lives depend. You can connect with hundreds or thousands of engaged folks making a real difference.
The 2009 Bioneers Conference featured plenary speeches from: Amazonian Chief Almir, Brock Dolman, Kari Fulton, Jack Hidary, Sarah James, Jensine Larsen, Joanna Macy, Mari Margil, Jason McClennan, Michael Pollan, Jerome Ringo, Arturo Sandoval, Dr. Andrew Weil, Lily Yeh and more!
We view the conference as a dose of optimism, where real world examples of people working to making improvements to our planet. You walk away from Bioneers with knowledge, inspiration and hope that we can change our ways.
The Bioneers website has extensive information with full schedule of speakers.

Spiritual Gathering of the Four Indigenous Nations of the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta
When: Thursday August 18th through Monday August 22, 2011
Where: Nabusimake, in the Sierra de la Marta mountains of Colombia
WHAT HUMANITY WAS WAITING FOR ...The Dawn of a New Time
For the indigenous peoples living in Colombia´s Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta: Kogi, Wiwa, Arhuaco and Kankuamo, sustaining the balance of the spiritual and physical world is their sacred task, they are guardians of the earth and have managed to live in harmony with the planet for hundreds of years.
For these four indigenous groups, the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta is the beating heart of the world, the spirit`s temple, and is where wealth and sustenance of the spirit is. Likewise, in the Sierra Nevada dwell the spiritual father and mother of water, wind, fire and earth of mankind who sustain life on this planet.
The Mamos (highly trained ritual priests) have felt that is the time to teach and share, among different cultures, the spiritual knowledge that leads to a new consciousness.
It's time to listen and learn from our elder brothers. In their wisdom are ancient records of human history and ancestral memory that reminds us how to live in harmony, which contributes to our transformation as a human race and invites us to a new and conscious way of living.
If you feel in your heart the call to participate in this sacred gathering, sign up and be part of “the dawn of a new time". This is a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to listen and learn from these deeply spiritual people.
