Based out of Vancouver, BC and Salt Lake City, Utah, the Solvable team is our strategic partner in designing and developing an Equitable Development Action Academy in the fall. Their work is focused on launching organizations towards regenerative futures.
Alongside a group of education professionals, researchers, and senior administrators, they're hosting Transforming Educational Futures, a 75-minute inquiry into how we educate our way out of the polycrisis, and what stands between education-as-usual and transformational educational futures. This is their first public and free workshop of the year, and it will be on April 5th at 1 pm ET.
This virtual event builds off of the competencies, capacities, and dispositions for societal impact leadership identified by two learning journey cohorts in 2022, and it will centre on how we simultaneously hold multiple states of change in parallel:
- Sitting with the dominant paradigm to intentionally discern what should be carried forward and what should be hospiced and allowed to die well; and
- Creating the space, dialogues, and imaginations about alternative futures that represent a paradigmatic shift from the status quo.
They'll walk through and use their adapted version of Bill Sharpe's Three Horizons framework for the discussion.
I hope to see some Extension folks there! Please feel free to forward to colleagues and friends who you think share in this work.
