This is the course I’ve been wanting for 10 years! I’ve spent a decade grappling with ‘where to next?’ economically, given the huge gaps in our economic systems and models, which don’t value the living systems of the earth. This course addresses these wicked problems in the only way they can be addressed: collaboratively, with many voices, in both theoretical and place-centred ways. The many excellent, provocative speakers brought a range of intellectual disciplines, frameworks, skills and experience to bear on the critical issues of this moment. I cannot recommend this course more highly to anyone wanting to stretch their thinking and expand their communities to create new ways of material being in community on this earth.
This short course was such an enjoyable journey of connection for me- with such wisdom and heart, from not just the presenters but the other fellow journey makers. Each module and each conversation helped create a richer tapestry from where emergence can unfold.
I live on a rural family farm where we have a passion for creating community and working with natural intelligence. So many big ideas have felt to fall on mute ears over the years, but this course has helped to create both an energetic and practical emergent framework for our larger vision. I am sure it will do that for others who enrol.

Canada (Turtle Island) is facing many of the same rapidly developing ecological, economic and social challenges being experienced in Australia. NENA’s short course provided a bedrock of understanding from historical root causes to current potential solutions at both local and global levels. This is an essential course for anyone who is attempting to respond to real world problems. With the excellent learning materials, the expert facilitators and a weekly discourse I gained more confidence and a clearer systems perspective on where the inter-related levers of change need to be applied in the scope of my work.
