Building Community Resilience and Immunity in the Age of Corona
Resilient Santa Barbara Initiative: Inaugural Webinar
Ringside Seat™ Podcast Series #8
2020-06-22
SUMMARY
Extraordinary times create extraordinary opportunities. What if the corona pandemic that is restricting us to self-quarantine in our homes and shutting down life as we know it is simultaneously opening new paths to care better for ourselves and others and to discover new paths toward our common humanity? How can we use this time wisely to cultivate Integral Resilience and turn our common adversity to collective advantage?
The new series is designed around our 5 Minutes to Resilience app and follows the popular Ringside Seat format of a round table discussion by experts, in this case health thought leaders and innovators, on a single question: “How to Build Community Resilience and Immunity in the Age of Corona?” While we are all waiting for a miracle vaccine, what can we intelligently do NOW?
Pleasecontact us to register for the program – enter “Register for Corona Online Program” in the email form subject line. The Program Series is FREE and based on Donations to the Santa Barbara Foundation, designated for Resilient Santa Barbara Initiative.
