Transition in Action – Transition Tales
Transition Tales at King Edward VI Community School, Totnes (© Jacqi Hodgson)
Transition Tales are visions of a positive future world. In a sense the whole transition movement is a story we are telling ourselves as we step into it. Transition Tales are the more specifically located stories, told of a time and place and of people. They help us to collectively envision a future in which we are meeting the challenge and also to negotiate our feelings from the present day. They can entice us to take the next step and affirm that however small step might feel its part of the interweaving of a larger whole, which we have glimpsed in these stories from the future.
Transition Tales are an especially effective way of introducing young people to these issues and of engaging their creativity and imagination in what future we would like to create together.
