NETWORK OF CIRCLES

Network of Circles is emerging out of a global movement -- a movement of millions of people that crosses and transcends borders, that is dissolving misunderstanding, that is working to build trust and common bonds among "diverse" groups and individuals.

People everywhere are tired of misunderstanding and anger. They are tired of the injury that emerges from not understanding, and they are inspired by the vital creativity that emerges from experience with the unfamiliar. These people are building bonds of friendship that span the differences in cultures. They are building bonds of trust.

A new global community is forming, coming together for a million individual reasons, through thousands of organizations, in endlessly diverse ways. There is no single common vision or dream that holds this process together -- or is there?

Could it be that the magic of circles is the key to bringing the vast and incredible diversity of the world into a common framework -- into one unbroken circle?

The Network of Circles project explores these possibilities -- creating connections that link leading groups from spirituality, peace, interfaith, and the women's movement. Our vision is -- we CAN work together.
