Social impact of environmental issues; Self-sufficiency

"From a pioneer in ""social permaculture,"" how we can foster the inner resources to create the world we know is possible.

The challenging times we live in show us that there is no going back to normal life, but how do we step forward? Looby Macnamara, international thought leader and teacher, introduces Cultural Emergence, a framework and toolkit that enables us to design the world we want to live in. It activates healing and revolutionises our approach to creating life-sustaining and regenerative cultures.

Drawing upon the lineages of indigenous wisdom, permaculture design and systems thinking, Cultural Emergence is a profoundly effective toolkit for creating a new understanding of culture. It shows us how to:

.

Expand our thinking and possibilities .

Better understand where problems come from and, by using radical reflection on the root causes, create successful healing strategies .

Embody the learning and effectively embed the changes in our lives into new ways of interacting and being .

Build our individual and collective resilience in turbulent times and support ourselves to proactively adjust to transitions whether they are personal life changes or collective challenges such as climate change .

Use the tools to create the conditions for emergence, informing the creation of cultures of care, connection, peace, health, effectiveness and trust.

Cultural Emergence is visionary, practical, wise and simple to use. It is a message of hope with tools for empowerment. Filled with stories of people around the world who have benefited using this approach, it inspires us with possibilities. It is a timely, much-needed book that has the potential to be useful to everyone and enable deep and radical transformation.
