When Compassion Builds A System: Creative Tension and the Mandala for Systems Change - Wednesday, May 8, 2024

Registration Deadline: 5/6/24 at 6pm

The Mandala provides a framework for understanding the relationship among four domains:  Capacity Building-Community Building opposite of one another, Practice and Research opposite from one another, and how they interact with one another to create systemic change that is organic, self-sustaining, and long-term.  It allows us to create a vision of change we imagine and then articulate the mechanisms necessary for change to occur in each of the components.  The opposition of these forces results in Creative Tension, and this drill down will explore that tension.
