We are in interesting times. Ecological upheaval and regeneration, the exponential development of AI, reexamining gender, race and identity, a referendum and a treaty.


“How do we think our way through the messes we’re in when the way we think is part of the mess?” – Nora Bateson (Originator of Warm Data Labs)


A Warm Data gathering is like the best after-dinner conversations you have ever had, with people you may have never met. Participants share their stories and observations about a common question, moving between small groups to explore the day’s topic from different viewpoints such as family, health, economy, and more. Everyone moves whenever and wherever their curiosity takes them, listening to each other and sharing whatever occurs to them. In the last half-hour, we come back together as one group and share what we’ve noticed and any insights we have gained.

These experiences have been described as a “kaleidoscope of conversation”, packed with enriching stories, laughter, and insight. They nourish the soul, transform the way we approach work, life, and our communities, and ultimately, create space for new relationships to flourish. They can even plant new seeds for community projects to renew and revitalise community life.

In these turbulent times, many of us feel we are standing on unstable ground. Talking together in Warm Data sessions helps us see fresh possibilities for being okay within our changing world.

"I suddenly glimpsed a new way of seeing as I listened to someone else describing her sense of the complexities we all live in right now".

When we come together to share our stories and listen to one another, we expand our view of life, deepen our understanding of what others in our communities are going through, and perhaps even see fresh possibilities.

What is possible when people meet people as people, not as roles, titles, or experts, to discuss the changes we're living through together?

Join us.

*Please remember your water bottle and bring a blanket.

“There will be no community without first communing”

— Nora Bateson

Warm Data is the relational information that describes the many parts of a system. For example, to understand a family, one must understand not only the family members but also the relationships between them, the context they reside in, the ecosystem that shapes them and that is, in turn, shaped by them –that is, the warm data. Warm Data familiarizes groups of people with the ways in which the contexts of their lives marinate and overlap into each other, and it offers an introduction to the complexity of their own lives so that they may better see the complexity of others. Through this discovery, people begin to see how vital it is to tend to their families, communities, and the land, and they are able to respond to emergencies with warmth.

At times Warm Data is also described more simply as: Information that is alive.

Is it possible to respond to the living world without information that is also alive?

These events are run by our community of Warm Data Hosts trained in the practices of Warm Data by the International Bateson Institute and Nora Bateson.

No two events are the same!
