  • April 19: The Work That Reconnects: Practices Connected to Earth and Community Engage your love for the Earth with a variety of practices. WTR builds community and connectivity, reminding us of our core mission. Starting in the 1970s, these practices have spread around the world, shifting how people perceive and address climate change–helping us move from our intellect to our hearts. Facilitated by Bela Schultz, trained facilitator and UMass BDIC student with a concentration in environmental psychology.
