Carri, Elsa, and Nzwaki lift up common threads arising across the conversations in this series, especially how our relationships allow us to navigate during times of uncertainty and change. They highlight the importance of activating our collective imagination and advocate for storytelling as a tool for shifting mindsets and connecting global ideas to local action. They speak to how joyful approaches to change, undertaken with humility and trust, can become contagious interactions that scale out into movements that ultimately reshape larger systems. They wrap up the series with gratitude for the relationships that have brought these stories to life and make the podcast possible. https://www.aliveandlearning.net/episodes/episode-5-signals-of-the-future monthly 0.5 2024-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/667204494dd9ef2b88b4a976/4172d555-9adc-495b-ab44-4ca14ce915f3/Alice+Dimond.jpg Episodes - Episode 5 – Signals of the Future - Alice Dimond – Indigenous Innovation and Futures Practitioner at Tokona te Raki Alice Dimond (Kāi Tahu) is an Indigenous Innovation and Futures Practitioner dedicated to designing solutions for a more equitable and thriving future for Indigenous people.

Their stories touch on climate, youth, indigenous cultures, and our relationship to grief. The first story features young climate Leaders Iman Bashir and Fisayo Oyewale from Next Generation Foresight Practitioner’s Climate Futures Hub. They share experiences organizing intergenerational spaces that center youth inclusion in global forums, and speak to how the network has played a key role in their success and friendship.

Our last story is about using art to engage the complex emotions that arise as we navigate the complex challenges of our time. We hear from Method Collective, Toronto-based consultants and multimedia artists. Ziyan Hossain, Fran Quintero Rawlings, and Calla Lee speak about their immersive public art installation called Space for Grief as a model for public engagement with the emotions that accompany change. They shed light on the many ways in which our society fails to address grief and why engaging grief may help us navigate social change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/667204494dd9ef2b88b4a976/a7989643-decf-450c-8e22-e4571c9f8a2d/Iman2.png Episodes - Episode 5 – Signals of the Future - Iman Bashir – Researcher and Facilitator at School of International Futures (SOIF) As a Researcher and Facilitator at the School of International Futures (SOIF), Iman Bashir works on foresight research efforts, supports advisory projects, and facilitates training workshops.

His practice focuses on designing, hosting, and facilitating transformative conflict, action inquiry, nature-based culture regeneration, and collaborative governance processes that are in service of people working on their most complex insidious questions. His experiences range from working with community-based groups to organize, being a collaborative intermediary across and between spheres of government to develop learning and action networks, and accompanying people and organizations in civil society and business to cultivate new ways of thinking, acting, relating that embrace and embody complex living systems. Sean takes a relationship and principles-based approach to change that helps us cultivate the capacity to work with polarities. He does this by exploring different perspectives and possibilities that might guide us into deepening and expanding our worldviews, supporting folk to generate questions that bring about action, and guiding groups through collective decision-making processes to determine what next graceful step might be an expression and seed for the future they yearn to work, play and live into. Acknowledging some of the communities that have shaped Sean the most: 8 Shields; The Art of Hosting; Organization Unbound; The Presencing Institute; Deep Democracy; Human Systems Dynamics Institute; and all those they were built on.

Together, they advocate for intentional relational practices and structural clarity to foster healthy organizations and networks that honor diverse voices and histories. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/667204494dd9ef2b88b4a976/9f910fab-6bf6-4c9e-b5bf-7199cdacc53e/Anna+Birney+photo.JPG Episodes - Episode 2 – Relating Through Change - Anna Birney – CEO (Chief Enabling/Evolving Officer) at the School of System Change Anna is passionate about designing and facilitating systems change programmes that support people, communities, and organisations to transform their practice.
