Join the Four Years Go Campaign

The FOUR YEARS. GO (4YG) campaign www.fouryearsgo.org is amplifying the urgency to address the crises of our time. This campaign is about living life like everything you do in the next few years will impact the next 1,000 years and inviting other individuals, organizations and businesses to do the same.

The Beginning of a Beautiful Partnership

The Pachamama Alliance brought 4YG into existence a little over a year ago and from the word go, the Awakening the Dreamer community has jumped in to spread the message. ATD facilitators all over the world have heard this call and are inviting their symposium participants into the 4YG commitment to shift humanity’s direction by the end of 2014. And 4YG is exploring how to most effectively promote the ATD Symposium.

Maximizing Synergy

It is an exciting time as this deepening partnership unfolds. Mark Bacheldor sent out an email in August to nearly 10,000 4YG pledge makers to invite them to attend an ATD Symposium. Mark has also created an ATD Facilitator Network discussion so that people can engage in this conversation on how to maximize the synergy between these efforts. Janet Ryden participated on a recent ATD Community Coordinator call to share about 4YG and to hear about how people were using 4YG in their efforts. And these collaborations are just the beginning. There are plans underway on how to make the ATD Symposium visible and accessible to 4YG pledge takers through their soon to be launched website MyStand. We will keep you informed in these newsletters as things develop.

If you are an ATD Symposium facilitator who would like information on integrating 4YG into your Symposia, please contact JanetRyden@fouryearsgo.org. If you are with 4YG and would like to offer the Symposium to an audience contact your local Community Coordinator or gabrielle@pachamama.org.
