Please keep it SIMPLE or SHARE A LOT...
These are just suggestions.
Who: The Participants

Describe the individuals who made up your Feather Council.
-
Were there just a few? Were there many?
-
Were they Family Members, Classmates, or Community Members?
-
Did they come from different backgrounds and experiences that enriched the circle?
-
Were the participants excited or nervous, or both? Was this a new activity for them?
What:
-
How did the Circle leader/facilitator/guide welcome everyone? How did they close the circle?
-
What topic did you share and discuss?
-
Did you use the World Values Day suggested theme of "Values for the Future?" or did you use another suggested theme or one of your own?
-
How did it expand, and what did you learn from all that was shared?
Where: The Space

Describe the physical or virtual space where gatherings occur.
-
Was it an Outdoor Setting: The beauty of nature as a backdrop for connection?

Was it an online platform that used technology to connect people far and wide?
-
Was it held somewhere within a Community Setting, a school, or a meeting place?
-
Was there accessibility and space for everyone to join if they wished?
-
When: The Timing
-
Was this a planned, organized gathering, or was it more spontaneous and organic, using the feather council format as a way for people to share their views and feelings?
-
Would you want to repeat this again in the future? And what might you expand on or do differently next time? Could this be a recurring event, a way to celebrate milestones or changes together, or foster deeper connections among friends, coworkers, classmates, or family members?
How: The Process

Was there an opportunity to reflect afterward, either in silence or as a group?
