steps:
|
|
- headline: Recognise the obligation
|
|
description: >-
|
|
When a household within the utari (kin network) faces a birth, death,
|
|
harvest, or hardship, the network recognises an obligation to assist.
|
|
- headline: Gather helpers
|
|
description: >-
|
|
A senior member calls the utari together, naming the need and the
|
|
households who will contribute labour, food, or presence.
|
|
- headline: Work and share food
|
|
description: >-
|
|
The network gathers, works the task together, and shares a meal. The
|
|
host household provides; helpers bring what they can.
|
|
- headline: Reciprocate in turn
|
|
description: >-
|
|
Each contributing household knows its turn will come. The obligation is
|
|
ongoing, not transactional.
|
|
outcome: >-
|
|
No household faces major life events alone; the utari binds the community
|
|
through acknowledged mutual dependence.
|
|
practice: >-
|
|
Utari is not charity — it is kinship obligation. Honour reciprocity across
|
|
time; do not extract help without offering it when called. |
