Programs in Development
At CCI, we believe that learning is more than just a pathway to acquiring information – it is a dynamic journey of discovering and engaging the unknown.
The NowHere program is a new initiative that seeks to activate a holistic approach in the lives of teachers and children. Drawing from the NowHere guidebook and its unique triple approach: exploring experience, exploring nature and exploring with others; the project aims to empower educators and homeschoolers to guide students through contemplative practices in the classroom. Our goal is to create an environment where students can understand themselves better: inquiring into their own experience in creative ways, while at the same time managing stress, improving focus, and navigating the emotional upheavals of adolescence with grace.
The purpose of our programs is to create communities of inquiry to explore questions together. share a new vision of reality that can change our world. teach practices that connect head with heart, mind with body. reveal limitations imposed by our culture, society, and selves. help us transcend our limitations.
Fields of Inquiry
Center for Creative Inquiry hosts workshops, retreats, conferences, online programs, discussion groups, and public events. While every aspect of experience is a possible path for exploration, our programs currently focus on the following fields of knowledge:
- Individual contemplative practice
- Group practice and discussion
- Contemplative practices for teachers and children
- Engaged practice and systems thinking
- Change at the level of society and organizations
