In the coming months, this section will be expanded to include
a wide range of resources for you that will encourage cross-disciplinary
connections, inform, and kick-start your creativity. Here’s a few
to get you started.
The
Asset Based Community Development Institute
This institute is challenging the traditional approach to solving urban
problems, by focusing on community assets and the skills of its residents
instead of its needs and deficiencies. Good resources for thinking differently
about community change.
The
Miniature Earth
Thoughtful piece that asks the question, “If the world only had
100 people…”
Margaret
Wheatley
A thought-leader at the forefront of systemic organizational theory, Margaret
Wheatley's work provides an alternative view of the complexity of life
and the organizations we create. Highly recommended. She is also one of
founders of the Berkana
Institute.
Copy
Left
The burgeoning "copyleft" movement is reshaping the idea of
intellectual property. Get an overview of the concept here
then go to Creative
Commons to explore how you might use the tools to promote new ideas
and creativity.
