[Dialogue] Current social and ecological initiatives

Tue Aug 2 14:33:27 PDT 2022

Maybe the ‘why?’ 

What are you doing? Impact so far? 

What was the external challenge that called for it?

How did you approach the process?

Challenges faced and facing?

Learnings?

Good to hear from you, Bill. I know that you are doing much to care for many people. Each initiative could be invited, for example, to share 1) What you are doing, 2) How you are doing it, 3) What has been the impact, and 4) How can others learn from you. Could you do that in a ten-or-fifteen-minute presentation? We are still trying to see what is feasible, what is the best way to share with others and to document current initiatives on the archive's website. Please share any of your suggestions or other questions. For example, if we had four fifteen-minute presentations, each followed by ten minutes of Q&A, ending with twenty minutes of cross-initiative discussion, that would be a two hour Zoom meeting. We could repeat that a few times until we had covered all of the initiatives. Your thoughts?

Rob –

We’re very much on the doing pole in the Project Vida world – not sure what is the direction for the conversation?  Are there some questions that might give a clue?

Thanks,

Dear colleagues,

Alan Gammel, of the ICA SRC Global Calendar group, asked me if I might host a Zoom conversation on current social and ecological initiatives of OE/EI/ICA folks in this critical time. I would like to do that. Would you please share any initiatives that you are doing or that you know that others are doing that should be documented for the archive's website on a Zoom conversation series? 

Here are just a few of which I am aware:

1) Abbey North's programs by the Patterson's, 2) Vida Health Center in El Paso by the Schlesinger's, 3) Human Community Network in Oklahoma with Bill Parker and others, 4) Climate action forums in Denver and Redlands with Sunny Walker, Linda Hamilton, and others, 5) Swannanoa Watershed Doughnut Economics Initiative in NC, with our local group, 6) Social artistry training in Asia with Jan Sanders and others, 7) Caring for the Albuquerque homeless by Kaze Gadway. 

Once we see how many initiatives that would be involved, we will decide how long each presentation will be, how many Zoom events it would take to do this, and what kind of discussion we would have after a presentation or series of presentations.

Looking forward to hearing from you this week!    

Rob
