WHAT IS GAIA GATHERING?
Gaia Gathering is the National Canadian Pagan Conference, now in its FOURTH year.
It is a "peer-to-peer" Conference, rather than a festival or "camp". Pagans from across Canada share their experiences, exchange information and learn from and with each other. The Conference is based on the principle of dialogue and discussion, rather than the "leaders and learners" workshop/seminar model.

"Peer-to-peer" means a large portion of conference programming consists of moderated panels and round tables of participants discussing subjects they themselves suggest. Panelists from all across Canada volunteer to participate together in areas of personal interest or expertise, and the panel may or may not have a designated "facilitator" who has helped pull that panel topic together. Topics, ideas, suggestions all mix together to assist the Board in constructing the event that the participants want to attend.
