May 20, 2022 Nuanu - designing the constitution for a huge community project in Bali
Sasha Dimitrevic & Tucker Walsh are part of the organising crew for Nuanu: a new intentional village in Bali which could eventually grow to 2000 people. They interviewed me seeking advice for their community constitution.
Themes
- multi-level addressable nested identities
- epistemic conflict between oral & literate culture
- using tempo to find the sweet spot between chaos and order
- enrolling community members into polarity management
- subsidiarity
- training community members in conflict resolution, communication skills, etc
- dual org charts for working & relating
- designing to prevent people falling thru the cracks: loneliness, invisibility, disengagement
- synchronising across the digital vs physical divide
- encouraging active citizenship
- what to do with low engagement
- power dynamics, accountability for people in leadership roles
- leadership succession
