Profile Information:

How did you learn about Art of Hosting (please add the date and place) and what attracted you to it?: I learned about the art of hosting through a mentor and assisted my first AOH gathering in Vermont in august 2011.

I absolutely loved my experience and confirmed my intuition on creating these kind of spaces for enabeling social change, collaborative leadership, taping in collective intelligence and enabeling social innovations....
Tell us about your experience with Art of Hosting as part of your life and work. What would you say your competence in it is? (new, starting practitioner, experienced practitioner, steward): I'm totally new with the Art of hosting, even though i have read about it. These practices have given me a concrete doorway for my all too much theoretical baggage on knowledge mobilization. I hope to become an experienced practitioner in time... :)
What is the primary field/topic/focus in your hosting work?: Social justice (poverty reduction, community development, gender equality, international solidarity).
Where do you live/work?: in Montreal
