|
|
- for [[capra course]]
|
|
- about [[32]] people attending
|
|
- begins with a [[moment of grounding]], 2x [[bell]] (nice) by [[della duncan]]
|
|
- [[fritjof capra]] says:
|
|
- glad to see people face to face, usually enjoy the closing circles tremendously, looking forward to hearing from you
|
|
- taking an opportunity to reflect on the difficult times we're living in, and the transition we're living through.
|
|
- in the last 40 years I have seen technological revolution, backlash -- the turn of the chaotic pendulum
|
|
- [[war in ukraine]] seems to be a regression to the status quo around the 50s-60s
|
|
- grew up tens of miles away from the [[iron curtain]] in [[austria]]
|
|
- the two blocs were in [[competition]]
|
|
- [[bloc thinking]] is making a comeback:
|
|
- [[putin]], who seemingly wants to rebuild the russian empire as it was pre 1989
|
|
- [[nato]], an alliance from [[cold war]] times
|
|
- both blocs are incompatible with the massively interconnected world we live in today
|
|
- our major problems are [[global]] and [[systemic]]
|
|
- we need [[cooperation]], [[negotiation]] and [[compromise]] to solve them, not [[competition]] or [[war]]
|
|
- the outlines of the necessary [[compromise]] in this conflict seem clear:
|
|
- [[putin]] will not get to rebuild imperial russia
|
|
- [[ukraine]] will not get to join [[nato]], but rather remain neutral
|
|
- when dealing with a bully, increasing military tension does not seem a wise path to follow
|
|
- [[cuban missile crisis]] [[1962]] was resolved by [[diplomacy]] and with a compromise
|
|
- [[usa]] withdrew missiles from [[turkey]]
|
|
- [[russia]] withdrew missiles from [[cuba]]
|
|
- hopefully [[diplomacy]] and [[compromise]] will outweigh the [[mechanistic]] bloc thinking from the past
|
|
- [[silvia]] says:
|
|
- I will be the [[alumni network]] coordinator
|
|
- you don't have to do anything on your side, same login will work for this network
|
|
- [[alumni gatherings]] 4x a year
|
|
- on equinoxes and solstices :)
|
|
- Tues June 21st, 9am - 10:15am PDT, June Solstice Gathering
|
|
- [[1k members]] organized in currently [[55 groups]]
|
|
- reach out if you want a [[certificate]]
|
|
- [[della duncan]] on to [[breakout rooms]]
|
|
- "how are you integrating the knowledge from the course"?
|
|
- with [[paul higgings]] and [[dario pulcini]]
|
|
- [[communities of practice]]
|
|
- [[feedback loop]]
|
|
- terminology that is trans-disciplinary has wide appeal
|
|
- let's send links to each other?
|
|
- [[paul]] https://ltcwrk.com/introduction/
|
|
- [[della]]: another alum doing great work with visualizing systems thinking - https://www.lindaboothsweeney.net
|
|
- [[sharing]]
|
|
- [[mandy]]
|
|
- [[illustrator]]
|
|
- [[arnd]]
|
|
- very similar themes in the breakout room
|
|
- how do we engage with each other in a nurturing way? how do we change mindsets?
|
|
- [[feminist morality]]
|
|
- Q: how do we change culture?
|
|
- from the systems point of view, culture is an emergent phenomenon in a network of communications. as communication continues, there are feedback loops, and a system of values and behaviour emerges
|
|
- there is a difference between a [[social system]] and a [[community]]: when the earlier develops a culture, it becomes the latter.
|
|
- [[paul]]
|
|
- how to distill systems thinking for educators?
|
|
- [[fritjof]]: strategy has been to promote the [[capra course]] among educators
|
|
- [[gaia education]] [[work that reconnects]] (sp?) are associated communities
|
|
- [[della duncan]]: [[The Systems Thinking Playbook]]: Exercises to Stretch and Build Learning and Systems Thinking Capabilities"
|
|
- [[silvia]]
|
|
- the impact of network composition: how to combine communities, intensify connections between communities?
|
|
- [[lisa]] how would you describe our community?
|
|
- [[fritjof]] I'd describe it as a [[learning community]]. It seems like the simplest and most powerful way to enact [[transformative learning]], learning which changes our worldview.
|
|
- When we learn in a [[community]], you discuss concept relationships while you experience human relationships; this has a powerful emotional component.
|
|
- [[rito]] the issue of perception and the [[mechanistic mindset]]
|
|
- work/life balance and interconnection
|
|
- [[be like water]]
|
|
- [[thomas]]
|
|
- "think globally, act locally" makes sense -- but now we can "act globally" and that is a beautiful thing
|
|
- [[pankaj]]
|
|
- had a great experience applying systems level thinking
|
|
- [[meriel]]
|
|
- on how to deal with the institutions we interact with (e.g. work with) as we grapple with value alignment
|
|
- “Think globally, act accordingly" - [[Terry Tempest Williams]]
|
|
- [[jeanette]]
|
|
- reach out if you're interested in discussing
|
|
- [[ani]]
|
|
- reads out a nice poem, [[a systems point of view]]
