Community Connect — an online networking event!
Join us for a fun and informative virtual gathering for people interested in intentional community.
Imagine a sweet gathering in the common house, but online and with communitarians across the world. Welcome to Community Connect — a monthly networking experience all about intentional communities. There will be opportunities for you to meet new friends and staff in the FIC, share about your project, and network in breakout sessions.
The majority of the event will be spent in breakout groups organized around topics that you propose. Move around to the different rooms to join the conversations that most interest you, à la Open Space Technology.
Ready to connect and build community? We hope to see you there on the 4th Tuesday of every month!
Praise for Community Connect
It was uplifting to feel connected to communities all over the world who are doing something that is a version of what we are also trying to achieve.
I absolutely loved the community of communities sharing their diverse locales, challenges and successes. It was truly inspiring to see so many committed people working together.
I loved the vibe of the facilitators and the shared connection/warmth in the breakout calls.
Being with all the people from intentional communities was amazing. I thought the leadership team organized well and made us all feel welcome. I enjoyed the breakout groups and the connections made. I enjoyed the poetry and meditations. I thought it was helpful when people spoke about the challenges they were having during this crisis.

What a beautiful gift to our intentional community builders and leaders! FIC’s programs provide a way for thinking and concerned people to collaborate for solutions to our multitude of global crises. Thank you FIC! – Terri Garcia
I am constantly impressed by the down-to-earth practicality of the FIC workshops combined with the philosophical questions that are so vital for us to explore. I’m grateful for the excellent planning and delivery of the workshops by skilled and inclusive presenters, who create a space that is both welcoming and invites participants to challenge existing ideas and world views. Well done and thank you FIC. – Claire Ogden
