Prosiect Gweithredu-Effaith

Mae newyddiaduraeth fyfyriol barhaus yn galluogi cyfranogwyr i gydnabod a bod yn berchen ar y siwrnai y buont arni. Rydym yn annog cyfranogwyr i rannu eu dysgu ag eraill ar draws cymuned Cymbrogi a thu hwnt. Mae hyn yn rhan o'r 'graddio' o'r rhaglen.

Connecting with Place: We immerse ourselves in the systems of Lawrenny through a guided natural systems-walk and foraging experience, making the connection between our needs and that of the non-human world.

How do I learn from my experience?

Shaun will guide you to transform the knowledge, awareness and insights from the previous session into day-to-day practice.

What needs to change for me to be well?

You will work with Shaun to cultivate a deeper sense of what ‘Being Well’ means to you. You will dive into the multiple dimensions of well-being, get clear sense of what it means to us individually and collectively, and develop practical ways to cultivate well-being in the rhythm of your daily lives.

A Lunch like no other: We gather to experience a meal foraged from the lands and estuary surrounding Lawrenny. An opportunity to connect with both the local eco-system and our fellow Companions.

Electives: Personalise your learning journey by joining one of a range of engaging and practical workshops linked to the Core 4.

Reflection: It is important to take a pause and to take stock. We invite you to choose a spot, to reflect and record your thoughts in your bespoke Companions Journal.

The Power of Storytelling: Let Phil take you on a powerful narrative journey into the art and practice of storytelling. Inspired by folk tales that connect the human and non-human worlds you will be invited to co-create you own powerful stories reflecting your journey; past, present and future.

Camp food and Camp fires: Time to settle down to some great organic and local food, chat, and enjoy the camp fire. Perhaps indulge in some star gazing or bat watching.

Cam 2: Archwilio

Earl Morning Well-being Practice: Optional 'early-risers' well-being session, taking in the peace, tranquility, and views across the Cleddau estuary.

Journey Mapping: Following a hearty camp fire breakfast we invite you to reflect on your journey so far and share where you hope to take it across the days and months ahead.

Sustainable Practice - How can we reduce the impact our clothing has?: Dr Verity Jones will challenge your thinking in this interactive session. Can fast fashion be sustainable? Whilst re-purposing old pieces of fabric, we will discuss issues such as garment worker conditions and microplastics from (washing) clothing. We will look at how one might design/make a sustainable item of clothing, observing case studies of circular/sustainable fashion brands.

Activate Your Creativity: Al Brunker will guide us on a creative journey, taking us from the intrapersonal through interpersonal and into our natural surroundings. Set free of the normal confines of 'creative-less' thought you will be invited to think expansivley.

Future Foods Experience: In this pre-lunch session we will explore, debate and sample 'Future Foods'. But after the bugs we will ensure you enjoy some fresh food, fresh air and some reflection time.

Designing a More Sustainable Future: In this depth session Rob will facilitate the application of a Design Thinking process, helping you to design your personal Action-Impact Project. Drawing on your own reflections, the Core 4 and your goals for the future you will work with Companions to collaboratively create the change you would like to see in the world.

And Finally: We convene to reflect, share our stories and discuss the next stage of the programme journey; our Action -Impact Projects. We commit to make a change and to support one another as we strive to change our lived worlds.

Electives: Join a number of workshops designed to help you explore the Core 4 more broadly.
