Yet it encompasses so many other much more essential aspects of our lives. We will see how money gives us access to goods we could not afford, by lack of time, skills, resources or energy and how it changes therefore our perception of values and needs or forces us into passivity. We will investigate some different traditional or possible approaches and practices which may help us to focus on the essential. Cost: DCH donation plus contributing some food to share.

Nowadays the two party system prevents minorities to be represented in parliament. By contrast a proportional system would allow these minor tendencies to be active and it would break the polarisation between the two major forces. Their presence in parliament, as so far unrepresented perceptions and tendencies, would generate new forms of alliances and it would foster a true public debate about the society we want to implement. Election system in Australia and the corresponding example based on the last elections (2019) About Aboriginal issues: What can we do at DCH to discover a true connexion to Aboriginal people and culture? The Uluru statement (written by elders at Uluru in 2017: this is an admirable very short text, so deep, so true. Uluru Statement from the Heart- 1p in pdf Through my readings and writings I had a modest insight into the Aboriginal issue and have here a proposal about what we could try to do at DCH. Warning: I do not know much about Aboriginal people and their culture but I'm very touched (in my ignorance) by the wealth it represents in terms of human gifts. There is a certainty: we would be all enriched to tap into the huge potential of true (re)conciliation. I need your insights, your advices, etc. Help me! Tell me please what you think of this proposal! Land and reconciliation - Two insights - One proposal - 4p in pdf About Australia: About democracy in Australia and how it has been shaped by its colonial past: Colonial system and democracy About ecology and climate change: As a response to Prof. Lesley Hughes' talk at the Bermagui Institute, a double proposal for an immediate action and radical change: Two proposals About the book "Silent invasion" by Clive Hamilton: How to resist Chinese state interference in Australian social and economic life. Resistance and resilience Further readings: See other texts published on this website (in a new window) 3) Life at DCH - Main practical documents about DCH (Each one in a new window) As a help for meditation: A few exercises of meditation (14p in pdf) We need your help: List of various works of maintenance to be done at DCH.
