‘How to live in this double reality.’ – our Director’s note, August 2025

Were you torn too, this summer, between posting happy, relaxed, summer pictures, and sharing the dreadful news coming from Gaza and the Westbank, or Ukraine, or from new inhumane policies in the country you come from?

I sometimes just don’t know. How to live in this double reality.

Thankfulness for beauty and peace is as important as crying or protesting with those in need. But sometimes, it’s just too hard. And then I am silent, for a bit.

These and other things, we will talk about – soon. Between us as practitioners, physically. The single most important time of the AWoN year – our Summit. It’s happening in Poland this time, close to the Belarusian border. The grim reality of people’s suffering will be whispering all around us. And we will talk; personally, professionally, vision sharing and deepening our connections.

Thank you for being connected, every subscriber, every follower and every like to the posts of our practitioners count. We keep each other on our feet, for we keep hope. For Europe, for a diverse and welcoming continent. Together we work on it and make every step count. You are not alone, we are not alone.
