Presencing Institute
The Presencing Institute (PI) is a global action research community that applies Theory U to societal transformation by shifting the social field from ego-system to eco-system awareness. The presencing process is a journey that connects us more deeply both to what wants to emerge in the world and to our highest future possibility—our emerging authentic self. The PI community focuses on refining and co-creating the presencing technology and making it available to change makers, innovators, and communities around the world. We work together on a variety of projects and offer capacity-building programs through inexpensive Global Classroom sessions (twice a year) as well as through 3-4 day Presencing Foundation Programs in North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America. We work towards creating a Global Action Research University that addresses the root causes of the current economic, ecological, social and spiritual crisis. Help us to continue reaching, inspiring and connecting changemakers all over the world. We rely on donations to carry out our mission to keep our tools, practices, and key global programs open and free. Your gift enables the Presencing Institute to continue giving.
