In November 2025, thirty-five teachers, researchers, social entrepreneurs, artists, and embodiment practitioners from twelve countries gathered at Aalto University in Helsinki, Finland, for the next chapter of a curriculum shaped over several years through the collaboration of Arawana Hayashi, choreographer and founder of Social Presencing Theater, and Ricardo Dutra, social designer, researcher, and educator. First prototyped in U.S. high school contexts, the work had already been carried forward through the residency in France.









Helsinki carried a long-held aspiration, to document these embodied practices in a way that could be shared more widely, not as a static curriculum, but as an open invitation for educators and people working with youth to reflect on, adapt, and create their own practices of togetherness.
