Here in Part II of this 3-part series, we go from foundations (Part I) to how we will convene humanity: in a planetary garden of conversations. Here, all of the learnings and networks of World Unity Week, Peace Week, the SINE Network, Humanity Rising, Other Networks, and myriad other online communities are consolidated into a single and singular Planetary Garden of Conversations. Bring your gardening tools and join us as we first imagine, and then prepare to tend this beautiful planetary garden of conversations together!

James Desmond & Jamen Shively
James Desmond is the main coordinator of Kindred Spirits. James is a local artist indigenous to County Cork, Ireland. He has also conducted extensive research on, and written about the histories of the indigenous peoples of the First Nations of Ireland and Turtle Island, and their beautiful connections, having written a book on the topic.
Jamen Shively has been involved in technology, humanitarian and environmental work since high school, when he traveled to central Mexico four times for summer- and winter-long volunteer projects involving latrine construction, sanitation, and community health development. Studying civil engineering and AI at U.C. Berkeley and M.I.T., Jamen went on to consult and work for a number of multinational companies, including Cemex of Mexico, and Microsoft, where he worked as Corporate Strategy Manager, developing a strategy and platform for leap-frogging Google into the lucrative space of B2B search and marketplaces.
Post-Microsoft, Jamen founded Diego Pellicer Inc., one of the first legal cannabis companies in the United States, and in partnership with former Mexican President Vicente Fox, orchestrated the legalization of cannabis at the level of the federal government of the United States.
He is currently focused on Kindred Spirits Ireland, and in supporting FWII and Chief Phil Lane, Jr., connect with Sinn Fein and others in Ireland, to launch the Planetary Garden of Conversations to save, heal and transform life on Earth.
