About the Ecofo Oasis Tent

Name: Ecofo

Initiated by: Tom Lyons

Schedule: A weekly commitment for 4 weeks.

Project purpose: Cultivating vibrant relationships in digital transformative communities.

Tent Activities:

Ecofo is a weekly dialogue where we practice relating to the Sacredness in one another. We believe this way of relating is the strongest possible foundation for any community.

Every dialogue lasts 90 minutes and involves four people. Each person suggests a question they’d like to explore, and then the group votes on their favorite for discussion.

Each group will stay together for four weeks, then those who wish to participate again will be reshuffled into new groups for another four weeks, and so on.

This practice has its own custom software (like Zoom).

Let me know below if you’d like to do a trial session. We can start with some one-off sessions before getting into the 4x4 rhythm.

I’ll do my best to make the next Oasis call, but it’s 4 a.m. in New Zealand, so I’ll have to see how rested I am closer to the time.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Hello Tom
I’m really intrigued by both the relational and technological dimensions of Ecofo. The idea of engaging deeply with others around meaningful questions in a structured, sacred space feels both grounding and expansive. I’m especially looking forward to participating in the trial session and seeing how the custom software supports this kind of dialogue. Also, I spotted a few familiar souls in the intro video :sparkles: so good to see people from the field coming together in this way.
Hope we can manage the time zones… count me in!

Hi Naeema, I appreciate you taking the time to look into this, and it’s nice to know that you are familiar with some of the Emergent Commons people in the video (they are wonderful)!

I’m happy to hear that you’d like to try it. Once two more people chime in, I’ll send you a message so we can find a time. Looking forward to connecting – thank you!
