Tällberg

The Tällberg Forum is an open conversation that has been going on annually in Tällberg, Sweden for the last 25 years - gathering business leaders, politicians, artists, scientists, and leading thinkers around the world (including Juanita, David, and many others from our communities this year) to explore questions of great importance to us all.

Like the inspiring new public access to TED talks, they've done something really innovative this year. Every day they posted a new video from the previous day's session on their website, each illustrating one of the 9 crucial themes they used as 'Tracks' for 2007's "How on Earth can we live together?" Forum: Do we care? Can we share? What is sustainability? Can we stay healthy? Can we stay safe? Can we agree? Can we do as we do? Is one earth enough? Does only money count?

Oneness

The Global Oneness Project engages with some of the big questions facing humanity through wonderful video interviews, including this one with our own Tom Hurley speaking about healing, perceived dualities of western culture, and the soul's knowing.

I think this is a fantastic use of technology for global storytelling... after all it is through our stories that we become real to each other, and begin to develop the understanding that leads to love and compassion. With the advent of places to share them like YouTube and projects like this, video becomes a new form of conversation that can flash like wildfire through the hearts and minds of internet-connected humanity.
