How Do We Scale Care for Humanity and the Planet Globally?
- Mobilizing a movement towards the IDGs -
In this Inner Development Gathering we will explore core aspects relating to how we build resilience and reconnection for both human and ecological ecosystems in times of multiple crises. In the face of the ongoing climate crisis and other layered crises on our planet, there are also many ongoing initiatives to address issues around resilience - from the large structural levels all the way to the interconnected individual levels.
Some of the initiatives that may be seen as being part of the ecosystem include the larger UNFCCC COP process (Conference of the Parties), the parallell COP² initiative (Care of People and Planet), The Mindfulness Initiative, the Inner Development Goals, and others. What might these multitudes of initiatives have as a common north star? What are leverage points that might accelerate the process of reaching any common objectives for significant impact at scale?
This Gathering will host a panel of leaders from policy, research and advocacy, who in their work address an array of aspects relating to the process of mobilizing humanity for climate action and social change. One perspective touches on the individual and leadership aspect of building psychological resilience. Another angle relates to strenghtening sustainable leadership within organizations, from a structural level of management and board levels. A third perspective has to do with ways to build powerful multi-sectoral or trans-contextual partnerships for a global movement to come about.
Join us in a conversation with leading representatives from academia, policymaking and organizing for wellbeing, care and human and planetary resilience.
The Gathering will start 15.30 CEST in Zoom. The official end is at 17.00 CEST. After that we invite all to stay on for an additional 30 minutes of "afterglow" to chat with other participants and contributors.
About the IDGs
In 2015, the UN Sustainable Development Goals provided us with a comprehensive plan for a sustainable world by 2030. However, progress is not happening fast enough.
There is an urgent need to increase our collective abilities to face and effectively work with complex challenges. This is why we are co-creating the Inner Development Goals (IDGs) - a blueprint of the capabilities, qualities and skills that are needed to achieve the 17 SDGs.
The Inner Development Goals is a non-profit, open-source organization to help us develop the collective inner skills and qualities needed to overcome our global challenges and move towards a thriving world.
