Many times we talk or hear about empowering a community through which people can recognize their connection to a place, seek their common vision and goals, develop their skills, improve their access to resources, and many other aspects of their collective identity and journey. But what do we really mean? How can community empowerment contribute to active citizen participation and enhance democracy? How do we define and frame a “community” after all? In the context of the two-hour embodied workshop, we try to reflect on the above questions. The workshop is open to everyone, both Eleusinians and non-Eleusinians, who are concerned with the above questions.
