New Paradigm Prototyping.
Why are we continuing to participate in existing local and global systems, when we know how much harm we are causing ourselves, each other and life on this planet?
At OpenEdge we do not have the answer, but we have insights from our collective learning, practice and experience, and we believe that viable alternatives rely on new ways of coming to collective answers, rather than applying externally imposed solutions, so we want to explore questions and answers with you. We work from the premise that life moves and changes and that new ways of being, organising and experiencing our existence are emerging all the time. We help groups and individuals develop personal skills, capacities, knowledge that support agile, interdependent and inclusive working relationships and systems. Our practice goes beyond political and technical engagement with conflict, to include deeper spiritual and philosophical resources for moving from paradigms of violence to paradigms of peace. |
If we do not consciously evolve new cultures, systems and behaviours we will inevitably reproduce existing ones.

We are currently working with 3 key entry points: Identity, conflict and transition

|
Festival of ConflictDiscover why conflict isn't bad, and learn tools and capacities to enrich our lives, organisations, communities and relationships.

Transition LoungeWhen so much change-work reproduces
existing ways of thinking, how do we get to a new story? |
When a behaviour becomes the norm we lose our ability to view it as dysfunctional. |
