Bioregional Mapping Design Lab

Hi everyone, This recurring design lab meets every two weeks for everyone interested in bioregional mapping and, ultimately, creating a bioregional atlas. Group Homework! – each session, find one “Bioregional” map that you feel like representes your home place, and share it with the group. A bioregional map means using maps that share the stories that are important to us, that are often left off traditional maps, or share an element that grows from the physical and geographic realities of a place.  We’ll be talking about recent bioregional mapping updates we’ve each been working on and also resources that we want to create, including: – A Bioregional Mapping Handbook – A Bioregional Mapping Presentation – Adding key pages onto the bioregional atlas website, including each of our bioregions.  If there is any trouble connecting, you can do so with this link https://us06web.zoom.us/j/2714307762?pwd=bVdYQWg0ZUdHVnBWUmJNZ2plRUxtUT09

Birthing BLC’s Learning Journey: Bi-Weekly Design Lab

WA

These are the main webinar sessions in the Birthing Bioregional Learning Centers’ learning journey. These webinars with Joe Brewer occur bi-weekly and will last approximately 90 minutes. Each session will consist of a webinar presentation followed by a discussion and Q&A. The theme for each webinar will be emergent based on what arises in the discussions after the webinars and in the design sessions on Thursdays. Event Link:  https://design-school-for-regenerating-earth.mn.co/events/birthing-blcs-design-session-americas-europe-africa-west-asia?instance_index=20240321T163000Z Note: You must be a member of the Design School for Regenerating Earth to attend the Birthing Bioregional Learning Centers Learning Journey. You can join the Cascadia Cohort, through our link here: https://regeneratecascadia.org/birthing-blc-cascadia/ We begin the 6-month journey on March 19, 2024. Detailed Overview Our current plan is to focus on theory and concepts for the first half of the learning journey and then move into design/build in our landscapes in the second half. However, this plan may change based on what is emerging in our live sessions. To participate fully in the learning journey, you should plan on devoting about 3-5 hours per week to the process. The learning journey will have the following components: 1) A series of bi-weekly webinars hosted by Joe Brewer every other Tuesday. The webinars will be 90 minutes. In these webinars, we will explore how to regenerate entire bioregions with a special focus on the design and creation of bioregional learning centers. The first webinar will be on March 19, 2024 at 11:30am Central Time. All of these webinars will be recorded for those of you unable to join live. RSVP for the series of webinars HERE. 2) A series of participant design sessions happening the same week as the webinars, where we will discuss the webinar topics and other emergent themes, engage in learning exchanges, and support one another in the design and creation of our bioregional learning centers. The design sessions will be 90 minutes. We have a regularly scheduled design session every other Thursday at 11:30am Central Time for the Americas / Europe / Africa / West Asia time zones, and every other Friday at 3:00am Central Time for the South Asia / Southeast Asia / Australia / New Zealand time zones. The first of these sessions will be on March 21, 2024 and March 22, 2024. 3) On the weeks when we do not have webinars / design sessions, we are highly encouraging you to meet in geographical cohorts. Many people are joining this learning journey in pre-formed cohorts, and we expect other cohorts to self-organize as we get started. We will give assignments during these weeks and encourage you to explore them in your cohorts. Please be sure to RSVP for the all of the events in the Events tab of this space. Even if you are not sure you can make it to a session, it’s best to RSVP as “Maybe” so that you receive notices when activity happens in the comment thread of the events. This is particularly important when we drop recording links there after our sessions. Also, be sure to check out the Assignments area to find recommended material that will prepare you this learning journey. We will be adding further assignments to this section as we move along in the learning journey. We are so looking […]

Campfire Friday

Online

Drop in and talk around the ”Campfire” Gathering around a “campfire” offers a time to simply connect, listen into the field, and build deeper connections in a way that informs our bioregional regeneration work. This process respects time-honored traditions of collective sense making. The sessions are hosted and usually include a small group of 6-8 people. There is a grounding and check in at the beginning, and themes may arise through which we deepen our conversation. Through these regular gatherings we build a cultural rhythm that can hold us on our journey together. At present we have general RC campfires but will eventually create more locally focused bioregional campfires where people can build connections and stories specific to their place.

Regenerate Cascadia Info & Update Session

Online

Brandon Letsinger and Clare Attwell, the co-administrators for Regenerate Cascadia will share the most recent news on what has happened since their last update in December. A LOT has been happening throughout this community. This is an opportunity to get a big picture overview of this huge, (and at times unwieldy) bioregional initiative, to see how you fit and how you can be involved in a way that makes sense for you. Please bring your questions.   Zoom link
