We warmly invite you to join the first ever Art of Harvesting in Taiwan this April: a 3-day immersive learning experience!
Why Art of Harvesting?
In fast shifting complex times, we are often pushed to move quickly and act decisively – before we have truly made sense of what is happening.
The Art of Harvesting offers a different pace and way.
It invites us to pause, be present, and pay attention to what is emerging beneath the surface of our conversations, experiences, and collective work – so that meaningful learning and wiser steps arise.
In our 3 days together, we offer a shared practice space for harvesting meaning, learning and collective wisdom that is grounded in presence, relationship and care for what is unfolding.
What Is the Art of Harvesting?
The Art of Harvesting is the practice of making meaning from collective experience — noticing patterns, distilling insight, and supporting the emergence of wiser next steps.
It goes beyond capturing notes or documenting outcomes. Harvesting attends to both the visible and invisible layers of group processes — the insights, patterns, emotions, tensions, and questions that shape how learning and action take form.
Rooted in the Art of Participatory Leadership (also known as The Art of Hosting & Harvesting Conversations that Matter), harvesting bridges what happens in the room with how insight is carried forward into practice and everyday life. So the important conversations continue to have impact beyond the moment.

As an environmentalist since the age of 4, Mansi followed that thread and worked across several urban environmental disciplines in various international organisations & NGOs including United Nations, European Union, CARE-India. In 2008, a visceral sense of climate urgency led her to re-orient and began on a new path of unlearning and relearning. In the last 15 years, she has been strongly purpose driven and focuses on facilitating participatory leadership, systems change, DEI & empowerment through building capacities & skills. She’s an international speaker/host, an artist-sense maker as well as a process design geek around creating participatory processes. Mansi is co-stewarding the Dutch & Indian field of Art of Participatory Leadership.

Larko Lo 羅曉勤
Hsiao-Chin is a university Japanese language teacher. She initially began exploring facilitation because she wanted to bring more “dialogue” into her courses. Through training and practice as a 2030 SDGs Game facilitator, and her learning and experience with LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY®, Theory U, visual facilitation, and Social Presencing Theater (SPT), she discovered that the one truly being opened up was herself—including her own anxiety and vulnerability in the face of silence and uncertainty.
Through ongoing awareness and practice, she has learned to slow down, listen, and trust. At this stage, she is increasingly focused on how to use Japanese classes to accompany students in practicing expression and dialogue, turning the classroom into a safe and possibility-rich space where they can explore themselves and the world together.
