Doughnut Economics

Doughnut Economics is a theory proposing a change of economic model as a response to humanity's major challenge of eradicating global poverty within the means of the planet's limited natural resources.

What makes us Human?

Michael Tomosello identifies eight pathways that starkly differentiate humans from their closest primate relatives: social cognition, communication, cultural learning, cooperative thinking, collaboration, prosociality, social norms, and moral identity.

Prosocial World

The ProSocial Core Processes combine a perspective on and critical and dialogical understanding of both the structures of our world (political, economic, environmental, cultural, spiritual, etc.) and the fluid movement of forces that act to sustain those structures in hegemonic equilibrium.

Diversity without Division

."Diversity Without Division" introduces you to the Moral Courage Method, a deeply researched and highly practical framework for turning contentious issues into constructive conversations.

You want to promote emotional and psychological well-being in your environment, whether with colleagues, students, or their families.

You're ready to move beyond theories and equip yourself (as well as other learners) with practical tools for fostering inclusive, innovative spaces.

You wish to improve your own interactions and relationships

Two- Eyed Seeing Mentoring

Two-eyed seeing encompasses looking at the problem by seeing the big picture—how various components interact—while also deeply studying each component.

We want our teachers to reflect defining characteristics of Two-eyed Seeing such as:

Valuing all perspectives

Blending and merging Indigenous and Western ways

Strength-based approach

Togetherness and co-learning

Leaving the world a better place
