Sense-Making in a Changing World

What does it mean to design a regenerative culture? How we can become regenerative by design? What we can be doing in our daily lives to be part of the urgent change we need to see in the world?  These are the questions we explore today.

It is my great pleasure to share with you on Sense-making in a Changing World today, a conversation I recorded with Daniel Christian Wahl PhD as we walked through the ancient olive terraces around the medieval monastery, Son Rullan on the island of Mallorca in the Mediterranean. We met there last year for the first time - the beginning of a friendship after knowing of each other's work for  years. We both are deeply involved in ecovillages, education, regenerative design and have a deep affiliation with Schumacher College, the Global Ecovillage Network and Gaia Education.

Daniel's book, Designing Regenerative Cultures, published in 2016 is essential reading - helping us to reframe the crises we currently face and exploring how we can live our way into the future.

Son Rullan has hosted many ecological gatherings and conversations, including an Ecovillage Design Education program, and my family and I were so graciously welcomed there as guests for the duration of our stay.

Daniel and I talked in pre-COVID times, but I am sharing this again because what Daniel shares is so relevant to where we find ourselves today.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Daniel and I invite you to share this episode and subscribe to my podcast here.

I am a possibilitarian and I believe in HumanKINDness.

In this podcast my guests and I explore How are we to live? Really live, as nature ourselves, tending the conditions where life can thrive. We ask How do we become the kind of humans this moment is asking us to be?

This podcast is one of my acts of myceliation. Each conversation is a thread in a vast network of people speaking up for life with love and care. 

This podcast beams out from my hand-built solar-powered studio in the midst of a permaculture food forest in a permaculture ecovillage on Jinibara and Gubbi Gubbi country.

If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.

My guest this week on Sense-Making in a Changing World is my amazing friend and fellow community food advocate and [pr]activist, Emma-Kate Rose. Emma-Kate has always been such an inspiration to me, and when you hear the projects she's involved with, I think you'll understand why.

She leads the ground-breaking community food enterprise, Food Connect,  and is co-founder, with her partner Robert Pekin, of the Food Connection Foundation and the Food Connect Shed.

The Food Connect Shed is a local space for the creative local food economy to shift towards healthier, fair and regenerative food system. This was an amazing achievement - bringing 500 community farmers and supporters to raise $2 million dollars in an equity crowdfunding campaign to purchase the warehouse they'd rented for 12 years. I am super proud to be one of the Food Connect Shed Careholders (not shareholders).

Emma-Kate is also the Chair of the Queensland Social Enterprise Council, a fellow at the Yunus Centre for Social Business and Program Director at  The Next Economy.  Emma-Kate turns business on its head, well actually, puts heart, ethics and care right at the centre. Actually way back in 2006 she started Brisbane's first Car Share enterprise. 

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Emma-Kate, and also hear how she has woven permaculture into thinking about their business and the future of food in the Brisbane region.

In this episode I am delighted to be sharing with you a conversation with Rob Hopkins, champion of the collective imagination, author of 'From What is to What If: Unleashing the Power of Imagination to Create the Future We Want' and co-founder of the Transition Town Movement that emerged out of an extended permaculture design course he was teaching in Ireland.

His other books include:
The Power of Just Doing Stuff: How Local Action can Change the World (2013)
The Transition Handbook: From Oil Dependency to Local Resilience (2008)
The Transition Companion: Making Your Community More Resilient in Uncertain Times (2013)

I caught up with Rob in his home town of Totnes last year - nearby to Schumacher College where he is a regular contributor. We recorded this interview in the Transition Town Totnes office. He is one of the most ethical and interesting thinkers I know with a grounding in permaculture too. It's no wonder he was voted one of the Independent's top 100 environmentalists and the Observer's list of Britains 50 New Radicals.

I hope you enjoy this conversation with Rob, check out his podcast too, From What is to What If and follow him on Twitter.

It is my great pleasure and honour to welcome Satish Kumar to the show today - world-renowned ecologist, thinker and educational visionary. Satish is the founder of Schumacher College and the Small School in Devon, England. He is Emeritus Editor of  Resurgence & Ecologist and founder of Green Books. The BBC Natural World program, Earth Pilgrim takes us out into Dartmoor walking with Satish exploring his Soil, Soul, Society philosophy.

Walking and simple living is a key thread in Satish's life as a former Jain monk born in Rajasthan, and a member of Vinobe Bhave's 'walking university'. Back in the early 1960s, when he was just 26, he set out on a 13,000km peace pilgrimage with a friend and no money. They visited key nuclear nations and visited leaders with peace tea. In London, they met Lord Bertrand Russell the 90 year old who was jailed for peace activism and inspired them.

It was in 1992 that I first met Satish at Schumacher College, just a year after the college had opened. I spent almost a year there then, and have returned several times - last year as a contribution teacher to the Beyond Development program with Jonathon Dawson.

I recorded this interview with Satish during that program at Schumacher College, Dartington last year just as he was releasing his latest book Elegant Simplicity: The Art of Living Well

Elegant Simplicity provides a coherent philosophy of life that weaves together simplicity of material life, thought, and spirit. In it, Satish distills five decades of reflection and wisdom into a guide for everyone.

Back in 1992 as well as the regular conversation sessions with Satish in the Schumacher College library, we cooked up authentic Indian feasts together every Friday and I often joined his meditation class. I also had the wonderful opportunity to study directly with Fritjof Capra, Helena Norberg-Hodge, Stephan Harding, Christopher Day, Arne Naess, Vandana Shiva and many others, as well as learn woodcarving, and have space to garden, ramble in the woods, paint and play music together. It was a transformative experience and type of an education model that shifted the way I saw learning.

Since then, offering educational programs has become my life - in community gardens, permaculture, ecovillages, regenerative design - and the influence of Satish's visionary education thinking is woven through it all.  I am particularly focussed on sharing this way of thinking and learning through the positive and practical permaculture lens. You can find more information about the Permaculture Educators Program here or take a look at my free 4 part permaculture series about becoming a permaculture educator.

Warm regards to you all,

Morag Gamble

It is a delight to share this conversation with 18yo permaculture leader, Sierra Robinson, on the show today on International Youth Day 2020.  Sierra is an articulate and inspiring permaculture activist (practical activist = [pr]activist) and teacher from Vancouver Island, Canada. She gave a brilliant permaculture TEDx talk when she was 17yo in Seattle entitled Beyond Sustainability: A Call for Regeneration. Sierra is also a Regional Crew Director for Earth Guardians - a global youth organisation run by and for young people. She's an aspiring filmmaker and when we spoke to her, she had just finished her homeschooling. 

Sierra has been around permaculture for 10 years and completed her first permaculture design course when she was only 12yo. She is now reaching so many people with her knowledge, skills and passion and sharing permaculture through the Earth Guardians.

Come and listen in to this conversation with Sierra, me and Permayouth representative, Maia Raymond (my daughter - 13yo at the time) and gain a glimpse of the amazing wisdom Sierra already embodies. Hear a little of her story and her work in the world.

Note: This interview was recorded just days after tragic killing of George Floyd and riots were erupting around North America and the world. Sierra's friends were on the frontlines and her phone was pinging persistently (I've cut most of them!). In respect, we kept the call short and will continue this conversation with Sierra and the Permayouth another time.

Today on Sense-Making in a Changing World, I am thrilled to welcome Rosemary Morrow - a respected teacher of permaculture teachers around the world, an elder in the Permaculture movement and author of the permaculture classics, Earth Users Guide to Permaculture,   Earth Users Guide to Teaching Permaculture  and Permaculture Teaching Matters.  Rosemary is also the cofounder of Permaculture for Refugees.

I would call much of what Rosemary does permaculture service work - offering permaculture education in some of the most challenging regions of the world  - because that is where it is needed most. She has worked in places like Cambodia, Bangladesh Timor Leste, Kashmir, Uganda, Afghanistan and the Middle East and she only goes where she is invited. This is the 2/3 world - the 'edgey' places of society where permaculture is so valued for surviving and thriving with little. Permaculture on the edge is the theme of her most recent writings to be released as new chapters in the updated version of her book.

In our conversation Rowe and I explore permaculture education from so many angles. She sees its potential is profound and its application universal. Now, more than ever, she says we need to be teaching permaculture everywhere, and she encourages us to explore how to keep our permaculture thinking alive as we face an ever-changing world with cascading disasters like fire, COVID-19, climate change and economic collapse.

I hope you enjoy this wide-ranging conversation with Rowe as much as I did and are inspired to deepen your permaculture knowledge and widen your permaculture teaching reach, and support new permaculture teaching communities to grow everywhere.

If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.

In this episode, I am joined in conversation by my dear friend Rhonda Hetzel - award-winning blogger (32 million + views) and best-selling author of Down to Earth and The Simple Home. Rhonda's blog is also called Down to Earth. You can find her on Instagram too.

Rhonda and I speak about finding pleasure and purpose in a simpler way, and of being home-based. We spoke in the midst of the covid-19 lockdown here in Queensland Australia via zoom. Around the world, we continue to be encouraged (or mandated) to stay home for extended periods of time. This calls us to reconsider what a more local home-based life means for us, and how we can make it work.

In our conversation we also explore how to make ends meet. The pandemic has brought a massive shift in patterns of work. For over a decade, Rhonda has been sharing simple practical advice for how to do more with less - with simple practical elegance.

In the introduction to her blog, she writes:

'If you haven't already discovered the power of your own home you are in for a delightful and beautiful shock. Come closer and let me whisper in your ear, because if everyone knows this, it will cause a revolution. The work you do in your own home will enrich you and make you a different person. It saved me from a life of ridiculous spending and mindless acquisition and slowed me down enough to allow me to see the beauty surrounding me.'

Rhonda's books and blog are guides to simple living, and are with such useful advice - especially now.

Rhonda and I meet about 5 years ago when I was interviewing her on the author stage at the Real Food Festival in Maleny. We have been close friends since. It is Rhonda in fact that inspired & encouraged me to start blogging, and offered me a regular segment on ABC radio. I love visiting her and her husband Hano ..and her chooks and wild Scottish dog, Gracie, for a cuppa in her garden - not too far from here.  I hope we can do this again soon.

How have you been reconnecting with home in 2020? Getting out in the garden and growing more food has definitely been a popular way.

It is my great pleasure to welcome Fritjof Capra, my dear friend and teacher, to Sense-making in a Changing World podcast exploring the systems view of life and the links with permaculture. Two special guests join me, my 14yo daughter, Maia and 12yo Eve -two of the founders of Permayouth.

I first met Fritjof in 1992 when he was teaching a residential course at Schumacher College and interviewed him for my first short film, Think Global: Eat Local - a Diet for a Sustainable Society  in 2005.

Fritjof Capra, Ph.D.,  is a scientist, educator, activist, and author of many international bestsellers that connect conceptual changes in science with broader changes in worldview and values in society. The main focus of his environmental education and activism has been to help build and nurture sustainable communities. 

• Fritjof's first book published in 1975, The Tao of Physics, was incredibly popular. It in 1975, it is still in print in more than 40 editions worldwide. In this book he explored the ways in which modern physics was changing our worldview from a mechanistic to a holistic and ecological one.

His most recent book, The Systems View of Life (Cambridge University Press, 2014), presents a grand new synthesis of this work—integrating the biological, cognitive, social, & ecological dimensions of life into one unified vision. He offers a course based on this book, called the Capra Course.

His other books include:
The Turning Point (1982), The Web of Life (1996), The Hidden Connections (2002), The Science of Leonardo (2007), and Learning from Leonardo (2013), Belonging to the Universe (1991). He also cowrote the screenplay for Mindwalk (1990).

Fritjof is a founding director of the Center for Ecoliteracy, a Fellow of Schumacher College, and serves on the Council of the Earth Charter .Initiative. He created a short film about the SDGs.

In Episode 6 of Sense-Making in a Changing World I warmly welcome you to join me in conversation with Kosha Joubert - her last interview as CEO of the Global Ecovillage Network (GEN) - an organisation she has been deeply involved with for over 15 years. She has lived in ecovillages for 25 years - currently Findhorn in Scotland, previously Sieben Linden in Germany, has visited communities in 40 countries & advocated for ecovillages in the UN.

Kosha is also the co-founder of Gaia Education, co-author of the Ecovillage Design Education curriculum, editor of Ecovillage: 1001 ways to heal the planet and is now transitioning into her new role with the Pocket Project "to contribute to the healing of collective & intergenerational trauma" with Thomas Hubl.

Through my conversation with Kosha, we see that ecovillage living is so diverse & can happen anywhere - where you are right now - urban or rural, in all countries & contexts, and that the underpinning principles value & respect the the regenerative practices of indigenous communities and traditional villages.

Find out more about the Global Ecovillage Network , the resources & programs. Perhaps there is a way you can get involved. Tune into the 2020 online  Ecovillage Summit attended by over 10,000 people (hosted by Kosha) & listen to Kosha's TEDx Talk.

This podcast beams out from my hand-built solar-powered studio in the midst of a permaculture food forest in a permaculture ecovillage on Jinibara and Gubbi Gubbi country.

If this episode lights something in you, pass it to one person who needs it. That is how myceliation works.
