KINSHIP: Coming back into right relationship with the World

On the auspicious occasion of the International Day of Human Fraternity, we are gathering to send an urgent call to make a healing shift, to restore kinship.

This year's theme, "KINSHIP: Coming back into right relationship with the World," invites us to transcend boundaries and reconnect with the sacredness of all life. It is an invitation to expand our circle of care to include all of creation, to honor the inherent worth and dignity of every being.

Join the movement on Tuesday, February 4, 2025.

Together, let's shift our perception and belief systems, embracing a more expansive understanding of ourselves and our connection to the world.

Our Mission: Seeding Kinship back into our communities.

TOUNCHÉ is a platform seeding the seeds of a new consciousness. Through our gatherings, we create spaces for open dialogue, empathy, and understanding. We encourage people to connect with each other on a deeper level, fostering relationships and building stronger communities.

By cultivating courageous conversations and creating safe spaces for open dialogue, we bridge divides and celebrate diversity.

Our goal is to cultivate communities of peace, where hearts open, minds expand, and love prevails.

Join us on this journey toward a more harmonious future.

Let's be the agents of change, the seeds of a more unified world.

voices for Peace

A community fundraiser for our sisters & brothers in gaza

organized by Shazieh, Dorian, Ixchel, Sophie, Swaady and Yoi

More than 38,000 people have been killed since October 7th, after a deadly Hamas terrorist attack prompted Israel to declare war and begin a military offensive. Many Palestinians have lost their lives, families have been torn apart, and the very fabric of Palestinian culture has been threatened. As an act of solidarity and in reverence for the oneness of our Human family, through this fundraiser and silent auction, we raised critical funds to directly support our Palestinian sisters and brothers.

100 PEOPLE | $5000 raised

From the Ubud community to support The Palestine Children's Relief Fund support. the ceremony was led by our Hindu hosts and joined by our Muslim and Jewish community members including the Muslims in Bali Organization.

BLACK LITURGIES

Are you capable of decentering yourself long enough to hear the voice of another? Will you take up the worlds alongside them, never overpowering them but following in solidarity?
I don’t need you to have the same experience with the sacred as I have, but I’m quite interested to see if you’ll rise and come on the journey.
— Cole Arthur Riley, Black Liturgies
