How to organise / structure and find / share
what we know about us, the world, and the in-between!
| My
challenge is to connect and transcend sectors, categories,
sign-systems, and scale and be helpful, do something that matters
towards mount survival and awareness. See also expanding comapssion and
reducing the infliction of suffering. In
roundtables I sometimes ask for concerns and offers people want to
share, but I also “played” what is “your favourite animal or “plant” in
a circle. Very effective to fast and deeply learn about others and
“other, new” concern was to have people introduce themselves by
concretely presenting what they have done and actually and concretely do & plan in
these fields, and where they see sectors connecting. Here my examples
as a teaser, but I must confess it is hard to shop real life actions
into one sector and feel many aspects and perspectives are not fitting. |
You can also use more sectors: | Try to think about your real contributions and work also in the fields below: (I will add mine later) |

To
address the subtle differences between meanings and values more has to
be done than just contextualise and find common frames of references to
negotiate unity in diversity. I propose to check out this recent
research and project proposal and see these “stumbling blocks” to be addressed in inter-cultural, multi-lingual mediation and dialog and deliberation contexts:
Transcultural Dialog and Peace-Making: Stumbling blocks preventing true dialog, peace-making, and reconciliation:
1) we fight over words but do not check the meaning,
2) we do not question and compare the values attached to statements and attitudes,
3)
we do not contextualize and embody concepts and meaning, do not check
the sectors, regions, scales, proportions and consequences of
alternative actions,
4) we do not give voice, empower, listen, cherish and cultivate difference or variety in dialog and decision making,
5) Disorientation and dumbing-down in Cyberculture and a misadministered and misunderstood, intangible
“Globalisation”: Where we get overloaded by communication noise
(sign/symbol melange) and media demagogy which means: no trust and
fidelity in the statements and no ways and means to check the
credibility and impact/relevance, and get lost between the scales,
brackets, and sectors.
6)
The above incompatibility and incomparability opens the door for
over-claims and oversimplifications. Leaders use intangible jargon
(plastic-words), neglect impacts and avoid instead of exploring
differences and alternatives.
