Launching a Generative Education Community

What if our schools nurtured each child in their own giftedness, agency, and authentic voice as they become generative citizens of the world?

This is more than just a vision. We know this is possible because we have seen inspiring real-life examples. We call it generative education.

Generative education refers to learning environments that enable each child and teacher to develop agency, connection, and courage so that they can sense and respond in life-affirming ways throughout their life. We imagine generative education as a path to wholeness, wellbeing, and purpose.

We are launching an ongoing digital commons – with dialogue, conversations, media, and more – to nurture the emergence of generative education wherever in the world it is happening.

We invite you who feel inspired by this vision to join us.

To begin we are hosting a series of conversations in which you will have the opportunity to hear from and meet inspiring on-the-ground leaders, share your experiences, and connect with fellow generative educators, parents, and students. In short, to build connections and community.

In addition, Axiom News is embarking on ongoing media making to share the stories of people who are bringing this vision to life. By curating, creating, and co-creating media we will illuminate and promote progress towards generative education.

Before we get started we would like to share our plans, get your feedback, and ask for your help.

If you wish to engage with other generative educators, parents, students, and community members by weaving your unique thread through this project, then please join us for one or both of two free calls:

• Thursday, September 13th, 11:00 am to 12:30 pm EST
  
• Saturday, September 15th, 11:00 am to 12:30 pm EST
  

During these calls you will have a chance to connect with other interested participants. We will explore with you what you would like to experience as a co-creator and participant in the upcoming series of conversations. We will invite your ideas about stories, potential guests, processes, and resources we might do well to include.

With all that good stuff in the mix we will then revise our plans. We’ll then host another call or two to invite you and others to help us make it all real.

YOU MUST REGISTER for this free call in order to receive the links and call information.

These calls will be highly participatory and are designed to cultivate community and connection. As such, if you choose to join us we ask that you join the call 5 minutes ahead of time and commit to remaining present and available for the duration of the call.

This is an initiative of Axiom News and the Resonance Centre for Social Evolution. Additional partners are welcomed and encouraged. To explore partnership, please contact peter@resonancecentre.com.
