fundamentals of systemic change
how do we change a system?
it's the million dollar question isn't it? if we just knew how to change the system, we'd have it all fixed by now... but complexity begs to differ. there is no recipe, nor protocol, but there is learning and insight. now more than ever, practitioners are trying, testing, adapting AND connecting, sharing and building. there is wisdom in the field. in this learning series we’ll explore the concept, the practice, and the opportunity of systemic change. importantly, we’ll find a place for ourselves in this work and offer a starting point and a guiding framework.
this course if for you if you:
- want to better understand systemic change and your role in it
- hold a learning and growing mindset and appreciate sitting in big questions
- know there is not a recipe for success, but signposts for a change journey
- recognize that no one person, organization or or even government is wholly responsible for changing a system. it’s a collective, and uncoordinated exercise
- you enjoy learning with others and diverse perspectives
