Who We Are
The journey on Ecological Belonging is a collective effort anchored by The Wellbeing Project and Georgetown University and done in collaboration with a number of extraordinary partners.
It invites individuals and communities to remember, renew, and reweave connections to oneself, each other, and the natural world.
