Our recent journey to build with our partners in Ayiti was an incredible success!
Naima and Angelique returned to Haiti July 13-20th to continue building with the community in which we are working and strengthen the plan for Ayiti Resurrect‘s second delegation in January 2012. The trip was ripe with reconnection and excitement for the next stages of this experiment in self-determination, inter-diasporic collaboration, spiritual healing, and community empowerment!
Read full report back HERE!
All the meetings that took place over the week were truly inspired gatherings of hearts and minds that have given Ayiti Resurrect even more focus and determination to continue this work! The community’s needs, desires, skills, and offerings are now solidly integrated into what we envision being a truly collaborative process for our next delegation. We are planning for powerful skill-sharing, curriculum development, and co-facilitation prep among our partners on the ground and our international delegates, followed by a week of workshops, activities, and counseling sessions that aimed to promote spiritual, emotional, and psychological healing for Comier residents.
In order to make all this happen, we will be doing major fundraising drives and hosting fundraising events in both New York and Oakland this fall. We need all the support we can get during the next few months as we develop our planning, confirm and build with our delegate team, and search for resources we need to make it all happen! Please keep AYITI RESURRECT in your thoughts, meditations, and prayers. And support us in any way you can!
