Education is pivotal but not without its limits in the drive for social change, genuine diversity and inclusion. How might we transform the ways of teaching and learning to bring a fresh lens, spark openness, and nurture generations to come? In particular, shaping knowledge and practices that prioritise Indigenous issues and decolonial thinking.
This dialogue is an opportunity to push your thinking and approach, with insights from world-class thinkers. Both Dr Miriam Rose Ungunmerr Baumann and Dr Otto Scharmer teach unique methodologies on listening and collaboration that focuses on emerging thought, deep listening and vulnerability. Drawing out their ideas is host Professor Jioji Ravulo; artist Jayce Pei Yu Lee creates live a scribing artwork of the ideas discussed. [Text Source: Sydney Ideas]
“One of the most powerful gateways that I have seen for learners in any kind of higher educational and leadership development setting, is accessing and learning how to practice deeper levels of listening.”
