Choose the seminar or forum in your area that best suits (we expect some to be available on DVD later). Hunter with the support of a local panel, will help us move away from seeing the world from within our own "closed boxes" and introduce us to "systems thinking" where everything is seen as interdependent. This works best with a wide audience including:

My name is Hatata and we need you to help us with NZ's biggest roundup.
Herd your parents, family, grandparents, teachers, friends, businessmen, farmers, developers, doctors, builders, engineers, lawyers, architects, researchers, judges, professors, bankers, mayors, councilors, politicians and all. We need them all working alongside us to help grow the kind of world that we would like to leave for all our future grandchildrens.
Our partner Hunter told us stories from around the planet to get us thinking about what we are doing to it. We can all share ideas to help us do things right now to make a difference.
