Culture of Empathy Builder:   Daniel Christian Wahl

 

Regenerative Cultures and Cultures of Empathy
Daniel Christian Wahl

Daniel Christian Wahl is author of Designing Regenerative Cultures. In his book, Daniel explores ways of relating to the many converging crises and opportunities faced by humanity at a local, regional and global scale. He invites us to step back from our tendency to want quick-fix solutions.

In this dialogue, we talk about the relationship between designing Regenerative Cultures and Cultures of Empathy. We see how they are closely interrelated.  Instead of othering and separating from each other, we need to come together with mutual empathy, presence, connection and care to heal the planet and co-design Regenerative and Empathic Cultures.

 

Daniel writes, "Spreading the story of why we care about life and the health of the whole and sharing the narrative of interbeing is culturally creative meta-design. By sharing the new and ancient story of interbeing we facilitate the emergence of diverse regenerative cultures scale-linked by empathy and cooperation."

Collaboration and empathy as evolutionary success stories
Daniel Christian Wahl

Posted on September 23, 2018

'Spreading the story of why we care about life and the health of the whole and sharing the narrative of interbeing is culturally creative meta-design. By sharing the new and ancient story of interbeing we facilitate the emergence of diverse regenerative cultures scale-linked by empathy and cooperation.'

What does it mean to be a ‘Weaver’?
Daniel Christian Wahl
"A weaver needs to be able to emphasize with the needs and perspectives of all those s/he is trying to connect into collaborative exchange and co-creative action.

More than that, weaving requires to nurture a field of empathy that involves and attracts ever more diverse collaborators — galvanized by mutual understanding, growing trust, and shared meaning and vision."

Activism Revisited: Conscious Participation and Collective Intelligence
By Daniel Christian Wahl
Nov 16, 2018
Sharing and cooperation can spread through the system like infectious health. The more people meet with cooperative, empathic and sharing attitudes, the more they will step into the joy of cooperating, caring for and sharing with others.

 
Daniel Wahl explores ways of relating to the many converging crises and opportunities faced by humanity at a local, regional and global scale. He invites us to step back from our tendency to want quick-fix solutions. Will they - rather than systemic transformation - offer the culture change needed?

Through the lenses of transformative innovation, whole systems thinking, ecological design, and transformative resilience, the book explores pathways towards a regenerative culture.
