Being Present! A Youth Conference at the Goethanum 2012!
21st-25th July 2012, Goethanum Dornach/CH
"All human activities are conditioned by the fact that men live together, but it is only action that cannot even be imagined outside the society of men."
Hannah Arendt: The Human Condition
To live in our current time means having capacities that allow a connection between humans to take place in a totally new manner. It also means being able to know at any one point or time what is going on all around the world. Due to these capacities of connection and increased knowledge, great possibilities of change arise. These possibilities are opportunities which also bear great responsibility at the same time for each and every one of us.
How can we change a world that is continuously changing itself? Which tasks do we give our attention to? With regards to this background, what does having a job and working mean in our present time?
These are the questions we would like to explore in connection with others. Through this connection we would like to exchange our experiences in trying to find our way in the present, to share how our experiences increasingly allow us the possibility at "Being-Present".
You are all warmly invited to come to the Goetheanum in summer 2012 (21-25 July) to explore these questions together. Save the date and spread the word!

Jetzt-sein! Eine internationale Jugendtagung am Goetheanum.
21.-25. Juli 2012 am Goethaum in Dornach/CH
"Jede menschliche Tätigkeit spielt in einer Umgebung von Dingen und Menschen; in ihr ist sie lokalisiert und ohne sie verlöre sie jeden Sinn."
Hannah Arendt: Vita Activa
In unserer Zeit zu leben, bedeutet nie dagewesene Möglichkeiten der Verbindung zu anderen Menschen haben zu können. Es bedeutet wissen zu können, was in der ganzen Welt geschieht. Es beinhaltet deswegen auch grosse Veränderungsmöglichkeiten und grosse Verantwortung für den Einzelnen, für jeden von uns!
Wie können wir eine sich ständig verwandelnde Welt verwandeln? Welchen Aufgaben wollen wir unsere Aufmerksamkeit und unsere Tatkraft widmen? Was ist und was bedeutet mit diesem Hintergrund Arbeit und Beruf in der heutigen Zeit?
Diesen Fragen möchten wir nachgehen und aus der Begegnung mit anderen, aus unseren Erfahrungen und aus den Erlebnissen der Gegenwart versuchen, Wege zu finden, die uns ein immer wacheres und zeitgemässes „Jetzt-sein“ aufschliessen.
Es sind alle herzlich willkommen, im Sommer 2012 (21.-25. Juli) hier ans Goethenum zu kommen, um gemeinsam diese Fragen zu bewegen und eine schöne Zeit zu verbringen! Also: Datum reservieren und weitersagen!

New steps for the YouthSection
Welcome to the Website of the international YouthSection!
The new team is now complete and we're trying to find our way here in Dornach. We are currently working on many issues, for example: a new Website, the Summer Conference 2012 (Title: "Being present!"), our weekly sessions and the question of studying at the YouthSection. As soon as we know more about it, we'll pass on the information over our eNews or on this website.
The latest edition of the eNews (December 2011) you'll find here.
To have your question answered, don't hesitate to contact us via mailyouthsectionorg.
you are always welcome,
with the warmest greetings,
Constanza, Lisa & Che
Dear friends/ Liebe Freunde,
The YouthSection is a place where the possibility is always given to have that special something: the encounter. This encounter with others also transforms me. It is an encounter with that which is already there and that which is new, the unexpected future. This encounter lives in all of us and is what connects us all to the present. The YouthSection is a place where the present is carried and realized through our presence; it is a place where the questions of our time can actually be lived.
These questions of our time can also be the content of our encounter with the YouthSection. I look forward to our work together with much joy and anticipation. We will see what themes will develop out of our work and time together. I welcome you all in this process!
Warmest regards,
Constanza.

Deutsch:
Jugendsektion ist ein Ort wo sich jedesmal wieder abspielen kann dass, was so kostbar ist: Begegnug. Begegnung mit den anderen, durch die ich selbst ja auch ein anderer werde. Begegnung von dem, was schon da war und das neue, das unerwartete, das zukünftige, dass ja lebt in jedem und dass uns alle verbindet mit der Gegenwart. Ein Ort in dem die Gegenwart sich durch unsere Gegenwärtigkeit verwirklicht, und wo also die Fragen unserer Zeit tatsächlich leben können.
Diese Fragen können auch Inhalt sein unserer Begenungen in der Jugendsektion. Mit sehr freudiger Erwartung schaue ich auf die gemeinsame Arbeit die sich aus ihnen entwickeln kann! Wir werden sehen welche Themen sich aus unser Zusammensein entfalten.
Ihr seid alle sehr willkommen dazu!
Herzliche Grüsse,
Constanza.
