Overview
This developmental guide for regenerative educators invites readers into a shared exploration on what it means to become a regenerative educator in today's and tomorrow’s world. Through biographical letter writing, a deep dive into the multidisciplinary theoretical foundations of these journeys, and the development of a cutting edge innovative methodological approach of co-constructed auto-ethnography, the book sheds light on the interwoven inner-transformations and outer systemic transitions involved in taking educational responsibility for a socio-ecologically just and thriving future. The book offers actionable and reflective exercises as intermezzos in between sections and chapters, to allow readers to test and translate the design principles and dynamic living system frameworks into their own educational contexts.
