Season 2 | Ep 28 | Papa God's Well | A Folktale from Haiti

Papa God's Well is an Haitian Folktale that I discovered in Dr Margaret Read MacDonald's Book Earth Care I remember telling this story in a workshop with a non-profit that was working with a rural community. We were exploring stories (real and traditional) that talk about community problem solving. Right now, I am working with a multinational in India that looks at water projects as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility. The stories from their field is a wonderful companion to this traditional folktale for a lesson on water conservation for school students. Papa God's Well is a story about authority, leadership and power. It is a story of what happens when you yield your power with an iron fist. Listen to Papa God's Well and retell it in the Classroom, Living Room and Boardroom with the strategies mentioned in the podcast.
