We invite you to a broad exploration of Ecological Wisdom. We will work with concepts of Ecological Intelligence, permaculture design principles.
We will utilize design principles to inform how we plan, design and innovate for the future.
Ecological Wisdom: means applying ecological understanding to our lives, as well as to the environment. It represents a holistic framework for change: whole humans, whole systems, whole organizations, whole communities.
Older ecological norms have meant cleaning up environmental messes or reducing our damage. Today there are more advanced ideas of community, stewardship, better product design, green chemistry, economics based upon sustainability and not growth.
Rather than providing the whole story, each Conversation Starter holds a piece of the story, and will bring a conversation of the capacities and conditions that need to be present to move from change to transformation.
Questions to consider:
- How does Ecological Intelligence (Eco-Q) help you move through your life and work?
- How does testing your assumptions help you expand your capacity for innovation?
- How would you describe the ecology of your organization or community?
- What are/could be compelling incentives to create a more respectful and harmonious relationship with all who share the planet?
- When it comes to consumption, how much is enough and who decides?
- How do we design for optimizing vs. maximizing?
Outcomes for the day: What will have changed for the participants?
We will have both learning and participatory outcomes.
Participants will practice using tools of transformation.
Participants will gain added experience in examining situations that will benefit from transformation.
Participants will commit to a new action that creates personal transformation.
Our goal is that you will leave rejuvenated, inspired, and more hopeful about the future of our planet, as well as filled with insights for your journey. Because knowledge-exchange is key to any shift, we will help you connect the dots to and for your organizations and communities. Please join us.
Thank you!
