Book this TALK for your local NZ community or enquire (below) about ZOOM PRESENTIONS

My name is Laurence Boomert and I would like to share with you and your community of like-minded and like-spirited people ways to adapt, transform and best get through the times we have found ourselves living in.  These times are an opportunity for us all to create a new, peaceful and productive way of existing and developing a world we all wish to live in.  The following subjects will be covered:-

  • How to build communities of trust and collaboration
  • Alternative systems of trade and exchange
  • Creating new jobs and enterprises and sustaining existing ones
  • Food, Health, Education and Home Preparation
  • Mental Health and Positive Attitudes
  • Future planning 

What I teach and will be sharing with you are systems I have developed, studied and practised over the past 40 years guided by knowing that there was fast becoming  a time where we would need to find solutions to our current corrupt and unsustainable social/political, economic and environmental trajectory.  I am an international speaker, activist and coach on community transformation, green business & the new economic foundations for a sustainable world. I am committed to finding sustainable, workable and equable solutions for humanity moving forward.  I am the co-founder of The Community Game (www.thecommunitygame.com) as well as other educational, fun and life-changing Workshops designed to move us forward as adaptive communities of self-sufficiency, support and change.  Quite simply I present and teach the technologies and innovations, as well as the economics and psychology that can help our lives today, and in the future. These are practical tested tools and solutions based in common sense, simplicity, human decency, creativity and positivity. 

In this free 2.5 hour presentation I will talk about the future today. Where we are exactly.  How we got here, and what mind-set and heart-set as well as practical tools, systems and practises we need to face the future with “can do positivity” and a purpose for all.  There is also time put aside for any questions you may have or any further information you may need.   For more information or to book your spot please email me at laurenceboomert@gmail.com or call me on 0272-588807  (First planned sessions available Dec 20th 2pm and 7pm NZ Time but other times can be arranged for groups).

As an extension to this free 2.5 hour Zoom presentation,  I also offer online and in person Workshops.  These can be taught to a group (either online or in person – minimum participants 6, maximum 10) or to any individual wanting to learn more about how to develop and implement these community based projects and future systems.  Ideally I would love to be able to travel to you to work with you all in person, but this will be dependent on current travel restrictions etc.

 WORKSHOPS

(On Zoom or in person available depending on travel restrictions.  Dates to be determined by numbers and availability)

1.THE FUTURE OF SOCIETY, EDUCATION AND MONEY  3 Hrs

This presentation looks at the non-negotiable future trends that are transforming our social, educational and economic landscapes along with an exciting array of positive, creative, action-based community responses that are defining the successful towns and cities of the future.  In times like these how can we increase our individual and collective security and well-being.

Also presented under the titles:  "How to Survive and Thrive in the 21st Century” “Decentralizing Everything” and “50 Fun ways to Unf*ck the World"

2. THE HEART OF COMMUNITY  3 Hrs

“The lone prepper is very lonely indeed. The core unit of survival is community” W.A Jones

 Humans are a social tribe animal who function best in collaboration. Most of the best aspects of the human experience are enjoyed and celebrated through what the collective has to offer, and this is also where our deeper needs for security are met and felt. Since the advent of the consumer capitalist society, we have moved increasingly into individualisation with more impersonal connections based mainly in monetary transactions - and the pursuit of money has become not only the number one requirement for participation but the singular dominating value. Consequently, we have unlearned the original foundations of community that used to be second nature to us. This workshop shows how we can re-find and re-build thriving communities based in trust, trade, innovation and doing things that make life better and help build future security in uncertain times..

3. MONEY SET FREE;  NEW OPTIONS FOR TRADE AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT   3 Hrs

From local to digital, bitcoins to barter credits, new currency trading systems and economic innovations are creating a liquidity that can strengthen local economies, fuel start-up businesses and enable social good projects. Participants will get an understanding of both old (existing) money and the new forms of money that are emerging with the digital and peer to peer revolutions. This workshop is designed to show you how to set up and use trading and sharing systems that can build communities of trust and cooperation that are not dependent on a singular system of exchange.

4. ECONOMIC FOUNDATIONS FOR INDEPENDENT EDUCATION MODELS  3Hrs

How new economic innovations (such as community currencies, peer to peer funding and collaborative economics) can be used to enhance and strengthen the foundations of new and existing schools. Recommended for: progressive educators, parents and community members trying to figure out how to fund and build new independent educational models.   

Workshop Fees/Costs

The fee for any of my 3-hour Workshops is $50 per person.  There will be a minimum of 6 students and a maximum of 10 as this allows time and energy for personal projects and questions as well as the collective teaching for the group.  Nobody will be turned away from participating for economic reasons and in alliance with what I teach, other non-$ forms of value exchange can also be accepted. 

The Community Game and Maker World 4 Schools are designed for groups of up to 100 as they are all about coming together and working together as a community to achieve your goals.  For more information on the cost of running one of these Events please contact me at laurenceboomert@gmail.com or call me on 0272-588807.  

Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,   Laurence Boomert
