Global Oneness: Raising consciousness through storytelling

Post written by Chris Spagnuolo. Follow Chris on Twitter Add comment

The Global Oneness Project is exploring how the radically simple notion of interconnectedness can be lived in our increasingly complex world (and we’re not talking Twitter and Facebook here). Since 2006, they’ve been traveling the globe gathering stories from creative and courageous people who base their lives and work on the understanding that we bear great responsibility for each other and our shared world.

They have an incredible library of films available for free on their website. The hope of the project is that by showing the diverse ways oneness is expressed—in the fields of sustainability, conflict resolution, spirituality, art, economics, indigenous culture, and social justice—others will be inspired to create solutions to personal and community challenges from their own lived understanding of oneness.  Each one of the videos is downloadable for iTunes, iPod and also in HD Video.  They’re all subtitled in at least twelve languages and are open for sharing under a Creative Commons license.

You can subscribe to the Global Oneness Blog here and the iTunes Video Podcasts here.

Here’s a beautiful trailer for the project that is very moving and indicative of the quality of the materials available on the website.

The Global Oneness Project is a special project of Kalliopeia Foundation, a private grant-making foundation in northern California committed to honoring the unity at the heart of life’s rich diversity.
