• Welcome!

    Thank you for your interest. I hope this course will be a powerful experience in which you explore the origins of our current predicament, learn to pay attention to the “Inner Dimension” of ourselves and institutions, and contribute to a project designed to shape public discussions on the most pressing issues we face today. We hope to pull together a cohort of 25 smart, thoughtful, deeply committed participants from a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives. If you’d like to be part of this unique opportunity, please use this application to tell us who you are, where you’re from, and why you’re interested in joining us. If you haven’t already, please read the course description, watch Rebecca Henderson's video describing the course’s origins, and review the full syllabus before completing the application. Because our project's success depends on participant attendance, we ask that you commit in advance to attending every session. Please review the schedule and confirm that you can attend all sessions. We will accept rolling applications, but we will let all applicants know our decisions by November 6th. If we accept your application, we will schedule a 30-minute call to get to know one another and ensure it’s a good fit for both of us. The Schedule: The class will run from 4 to 7 pm (with a break for a light dinner) on Wednesday evenings from Wednesday, Jan 27th to Wednesday, April 14th (with the exception of March 17th, which is Harvard’s spring break week). If you have any questions, please contact reweavingourselves@gmail.com.
  • Can you commit to attending all 12 sessions of the class? If no, please explain why.

  • Please upload a complete CV. (Do not worry about gaps or an unconventional path — we are not evaluating career progression.)
