With a focus on “ecological systems”, the second of four lectures planned for the Systemic Design course in the Master’s program in Strategic Foresight and Innovation at OCAD University proceeded as a timeboxed presentation: targeting 40 minutes of content (skipping slides to stay within time constraints), followed by 10 minutes of discussion. Since the slides are rich with content and links to sources, students were directed to pay attention to what I was saying, over trying to read the slides projected behind me.
The agenda was in four sections:
- [preamble] Errors, Attention and Traps (Ecological Understanding)
- Systems Changes Learning Circle (Bateson, Gibson, Ingold)
- (Resistances to) Changing as primary system of interest
- A. Socio-Ecological Systems Perspective
- Tavistock Institute (Emery, Trist)
- Organization as primary system of interest
- B. (Social-) Ecological Systems + Panarchy
- Stockholm Resilience Centre (Holling, Walker, Peterson)
- Ecology as primary system of interest
- C. The Ecosystem Approach
- Resilience Alliance (Waltner-Toews, Kay)
- Sustainable development project as primary system of interest
Online, the video is available on Youtube for streaming.
