​

The first installment of the 2026 NOW Webinar series, The Practice of Belonging, explores the question, how do we design systems that cultivate shared humanity, connection, and agency in everyday practice? Through real world examples, we will deepen our understanding on how centering humanity, relationship building, and shared responsibility shape communities where people experience dignity, voice and collective care. Through the lens of birth justice, we will learn from local leaders how practices of shared humanity, connection and agency in this movement advance our collective liberation.
