David Blumenkrantz and Jen Mendez share with the idea of youth and community development through rites of passage. This is a conversation that encompasses education, teaching children permaculture, community development, what it means to grow up, and four of the major life experiences shared by most cultures: birth, adolescence, marriage, and death.
David Blumenkrantz explains how coming together to help young people growing up through rites of passage, a community can regenarate itself.
Conversations – from the Latin – conversatinoem (conversation) “act of living with,” – conversari “to live with, keep company with,” literally “turn about with.”
