and CEO of The Pachamama Alliance
Tuesday, August 17th – San Francisco, CA
Available on video Friday, August 20th
The Monthly Gatherings are back!
Join
us for the kick-off of the new Monthly Gatherings.
 Bill’s
vision has been the guiding force of The Pachamama Alliance since the
very beginning, as co-Founder and Board Chairman. His deep thinking was a key source of the Awakening the Dreamer Symposium and Initiative, which
is now flourishing in 40 countries, and the FOUR YEARS. GO. campaign,
which is growing daily across the globe. He has skillfully guided the
work in Ecuador, through Fundacion Pachamama, and he was instrumental in
introducing the concept of Rights for Nature, which is now written into
the constitution of the country of Ecuador.
Come
hear Bill’s vision for the reinvigorated direction of The Pachamama Alliance as it
steps fully into the four-year commitment and framework.
An
introduction to The Pachamama Alliance will begin the evening at 6:30
pm, followed by dinner (no host) and the evening's presentation. Pena Pachamama is located at 1630 Powell Street, in North
Beach, San Francisco, CA. For more information, directions parking information and to RSVP visit: reserve your seat here.

The Pachamama Alliance at Bioneers Conference 2010 
October 17, 2010 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
Changing the Dream: The Pachamama Alliance by Lynne Twist
Rooted
in a profound encounter with the Achuar people in a remote region of
the Ecuadorian Amazon, The Pachamama Alliance seeks to change the dream
of the modern world and bring forth an environmentally sustainable,
spiritually fulfilling, socially just human presence on this planet.
Lynne Twist, visionary co-founder of The Pachamama Alliance, will
explore the origin, evolution and scope of this cutting-edge group’s
work, including its most recent accomplishments assisting the Ecuadorian
government to embed the rights of nature in its national Constitution,
the first in the world. She’ll also report on the Four Years Go campaign
to help catalyze dramatic global transformation.
October 17, 2010 2:45 pm - 4:15 pm
Giving Rights To Nature: Becoming a Global Movement
The
U.S. and all countries have property rights laws, but nature itself had
no rights anywhere until 2009 when Ecuador enshrined natural rights in
its groundbreaking constitution. The movement is spreading rapidly in
Latin America and globally, assisted by these remarkable leaders. With:
Lynne and Bill Twist, co-founders of the Pachamama Alliance; Tom Linzey,
co-founder of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF);
and Mari Margil, CELDF Associate Director.
