Spiral Journey Scholarship Fund

Support the intensive training of Work That Reconnects facilitators from around the globe dedicating their lives to the Great Turning.

The staff of the Spiral Journey International Facilitator Development Program are thrilled to announce our new scholarship fund through Interhelp, a non-profit fostering a network of people dedicated to claiming our role in the Great Turning to a life-sustaining society.
“I am very grateful for the opportunity the Spiral Journey Facilitators Course bursary gave me. It enabled me to participate in the learning, which greatly enriched my abilities as a facilitator, as well as deeper personal transformation aspect gaining more confidence and insights through taking part. The experience also connected me with like minded people all over the world.”

This year we have scholarship requests for over $25,000!! This is fantastic as people from all over the world are dedicating their lives and their work to the Great Turning.In these times of economic, social and environmental uncertainty more applicants are requesting financial help.

Currently we have requests for scholarships from people from Indonesia, India, Egypt, Vietnam, Malaysia, France, Germany, Sweden and the USA. We will prioritize scholarships for People of the Global Majority and others who have been impoverished and oppressed by the dominant socio-economic system.

When I found out about the Work That Reconnects, its philosophy and methods…I fell in love with it, with WTR. What I have been doing since I finished the training (this past spring) is putting myself in the service of change and activism. Practically, I often facilitate groups of climate activists, using a lot of WTR, asking for a minimum salary or whatever they can offer in exchange. Also, I am working on putting WTR in the service of feminism and its fights because it is so weak in this region, offering connection chances to circles of women and sharing together what next steps we can take to make the situation better for us and all women and all beings, especially the most oppressed ones. I dream of working with WTR with children and young people, to keep strong the connection we all are born with and get lost with time.

This scholarship fund will support emerging facilitators of the Work That Reconnects who want to participate in the Spiral Journey 6-month Facilitator Development Program but lack sufficient funds. We will prioritize scholarships for People of the Global Majority and others who have been impoverished and oppressed by the dominant socio-economic system.

Up to now, Spiral Journey has funded scholarships out of tuition payments, but that source is no longer adequate to meet the need. To fully meet our scholarship needs for the 2023-24 program, our goal is to raise $20,000 by the end of the current program. 

We are grateful to Interhelp for providing tax-deductible receipts for donors in the USA.
