ES3 - Notes for further dialogue and exploration

hi everyone,

i have already posted the notes (of the first planning conf.call) in the wiki-pages and as a comment to ria's initial post, but here seems to be an appropriate space for us to dive into the notes themselves and to explore things that are still emerging.

i am curious whether what peggy and margo both affirmed as the "synthesis statement" is what tom has.  tom can you share that here?  i'm also interested in the conversation about how the invitation captures the other themes and questions that were percolating during our call but that weren't fully captured in the synthesis.  i included those as my understanding is that there is a broad enough framing for the invitation, and then deeper questions and inquiries that can be included.

so current framing synthesis:

Listening into the Future:  What is calling?  Deep explorations about evolution, visions, where we are and where we might go as a planet.

other voices that emerged: 

            Scaling up in terms of social evolution

            Growing the capacity of the field

            Evolutionary processes as key component

            Collective visioning

            What are the collective visions/images of the future – what are calling us?

            Inviting the indigenous

            Different frames - Great turning, listening at the edges, evolutionary

i am particularly interested in the evolutionary processes and the vision/sensing into the future.  feeling strongly that these processes will serve us in this exporation. 

looking forward to the conversation,

love

sheri
