Sowing Seeds Workshops
Sowing Seeds to Change the World
There is a way to make real change happen.
Imagine a world in which people have the commitment and skills to solve the most pressing challenges of our time. Imagine if schools helped each student define his or her unique role in creating a better world. Imagine if making humane choices were part of every aspect of our lives.
You can be part of a growing movement dedicated to building a humane world through education!
As a high school student, I found [Sowing Seeds] the most educational thing I have ever been part of.... my goals have become clear. You have shown me I can do anything. This was life changing, and I will never forget it. You are changing the world, and make me feel like I can too."
~ Allison Jaquish, British Columbia, Boulder, CO, Sowing Seeds participant
Our Sowing Seeds Workshop will educate and inspire you to provide people with the insight they need to make truly informed choices that help create a humane world. You’ll learn powerful, enjoyable approaches you can use at schools, religious settings, events and other gatherings, as well as one on one. Our workshop offers you:
- Dynamic activities that demonstrate the effectiveness of humane education, so you’ll have confidence in your ability to use them to motivate change.
- Practical tips that show you how to help people, animals, the environment, and yourself at the same time, bringing together everything you care about.
- Experiences designed to explore your own values, so you can live in a way that’s a model others want to follow.
- Like-minded people who will support and inspire you, making you feel part of a strong and exciting movement.
- A copy of the book The Power and Promise of Humane Education
- and a private online discussion forum for Sowing Seeds graduates, so you can continue building your skills and your contacts after the workshop.
Our Sowing Seeds instructors are experienced and inspiring humane educators who have applied the methods you’ll be learning, in a variety of settings.
"I feel empowered: I am reminded of my passions and my dreams... but most importantly I am re-charged and ready to get out there and develop programs in my hometown."
~ Jessica Anderson, Colorado
