GLOBAL IN-DEPTH TALK-THROUGH

In preparation for the GUS 2024 practice, an In-Depth Talk-Through of the Underscore phases, connections, and aspects will be given — by many experienced facilitators from around the world. There will be multiple viewpoints, different languages, discussion, and some movement time to embody the principles. This year, Bruno Garrote (Brasil) will co-host with the GUS Coordinators. This is a recorded event.
