You are invited to join an early evening dialogue with Dr Robin Wood, Founding President of global social innovation catalyst Renaissance2, to find out. Robin brings a fun, entertaining style to an often sobering and complex topic. Cutting through the complexity and rhetoric, he challenges, empowers and inspires us with fresh insights and energy to go out and make a difference with passion and discernment. Some of the big questions and opportunities he will be covering include: Is There A Way Out, Up & Beyond The Other Side Of Business & Life As Usual? The evolution of our civilization is driven by an accelerating rate of knowledge breakthroughs, new technologies and ways of organizing. Through the emerging medium of "wethink" and "wecocreate', a few hundred million of us are shifting toward a more empathic, world-centric way of living. Yet our growing environmental footprint could trigger the extinction of 80% of all species this century, and we have only a few years left to avoid the tipping point to runaway warming and climate change. Seeing The Simplicity The Other Side Of Complexity Through The Renaissance2 Lens Unconscious evolution has always been driven by crises which trigger mass extinctions of species, technologies, products and organizations. Some say we are at the chaos point of no-return, others that we are at the dawn of the emergence of a new kind of human being. Dr Wood believes it is both more complex and yet simple. He'll explain how global trends are: •encouraging the conscious development of body, mind and spirit in self, culture and nature in myriad ways •enabling conscious evolution to catch-up with and tame the runaway growth of our economies and technologies •catalyzing a new interactive form of collective consciousness which is aware of the whole global system and able to effectively deal with previously insurmountable global challenges. Creating Our Own Energy, Information& Wellbeing: Power To The People From The Bottom Up Robin will explain the new global dynamic he calls "Power to the People" , whereby •resilient, thriving human habitats are being enabled by •socially entrepreneurial systems providing •renewable energy solutions, biosphere renewal services, bottom-up funding mechanisms, •catalyzed by meshworked organizational approaches, worldcentric mindsets and mass interactive innovation.
