The Pandemic of Loneliness
Thursday, January 5, 2023 from 5:00–6:00 pm PDT
Sharing From the Heart is a monthly initiative where young people from China and the United States come together around the pressing ecological, cultural, and spiritual issues of our time. Through sharing thoughts, personal stories, and actions in local settings, Chinese and American youth will begin building cross-cultural bonds to support a vision of a new, ecological civilization.
Beyond Covid, there is another lasting and pressing pandemic in the US–the pandemic of loneliness, isolation, and political fanaticism. In China, many young people are facing similar challenges. Many gave up urban life and moved to the countryside in search of community and connection with the land. In this conversation, we share stories, experiences and hold space for each other, letting the digital fireside generate warmth, hope, and support.
