Towards more resilient farming communities in lesotho
Supported by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) I conducted interviews with communities involved in FAO's Conservation Agriculture project http://www.lesothocsa.com/ to assess their resilience to extreme drought conditions. The interviews took place during January 2016 during an exceptionally dry summer, after most planted crops have failed. Farming communities in Lesotho are not very resilient to extreme droughts. But those that are resilient:
Work together
Are well-connected – share knowledge, learn
Have good leadership
Have rules, and a constitution
Plan ahead
Have many different livelihood strategies
Are patient
Are prepared to try new things – they help themselves.
Resilience Thinking: Preparing for the Unknown
The document discusses the concept of resilience thinking which views systems as interconnected and always changing in unpredictable ways. It acknowledges that while scientific inquiry has increased our understanding of the world, there will always be surprises. Resilience thinking examines how systems can withstand disturbances and adapt or transform in response to change rather than focusing only on maintaining a stable state. The document provides examples of how resilience thinking has been applied to issues like forest management and climate change to help systems transition in the face of uncertainty.

Gender in integrated systems research by Cynthia McDougall, Senior Scientist,...Humidtropics, a CGIAR Research Program
This document discusses the value and significance of gender and systems research. It focuses on how such research can identify leverage points to transform systems and shift norms, attitudes, and practices related to gender and social equity. Case studies on community forestry governance show that engaging communities and adapting governance approaches can increase benefits, reduce conflicts, and make resource distribution more equitable by increasing participation of women and poor groups. The document argues that gender and social equity issues provide pivotal opportunities for systems research to drive positive transformation.Gender and Systems Research Presentation by Cynthia McDougall

Youth Driven Community Action - Greg Owens
Greg Owens proposes a program called "Youth-Driven Community Action" that engages young people in their communities. The program would give youth leadership roles to identify local issues and develop solutions working with community organizations and leaders. By empowering youth, the program aims to strengthen communities and help young people gain work experience.
Social Change and Development Concepts
The document discusses key concepts related to social change and development. It defines social change as significant alterations in social structure, patterns of social action, and interaction. Development is defined as a process towards a desirable state that is an improvement over the previous condition. The document outlines various models and processes of social change, as well as factors, types, and barriers. It also discusses the role of education in social change and defines concepts like social development, economic development, participatory development, and sustainable development.

The Disaster Resilience of Place (DROP) model examines how organizations and communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters. Organizations and communities that exhibit low vulnerability and high resilience tend to recover quickly from disasters and use experiences to improve preparedness. Those with high vulnerability and low resilience often recover slowly or not at all. The concept of resilience originated in ecology and has two aspects - engineering resilience focuses on resistance and speed of return to the pre-disaster equilibrium, while ecological resilience emphasizes adaptation, transformation if needed, and the ability to thrive in a new context after a disturbance.

The Social Innovation Dynamic
This document discusses social innovation. It makes three key points:
1. Social innovation profoundly changes social systems through new initiatives, products, processes or programs that change routines, resource flows, authority structures or beliefs. Successful innovations have broad, long-lasting impact.
2. For social innovations to solve intractable problems, they must disrupt existing institutions that perpetuate those problems. Innovations with broad, durable impact challenge power structures and beliefs at a systemic level.
3. Achieving scale and longevity is a dynamic process requiring both deliberate efforts to develop and spread innovations, as well as opportunities provided by the broader social context. Both "social entrepreneurs" and "institutional entrepreneurs" play important roles,
Culture, Risk and Resilience
The document discusses definitions and conceptualizations of resilience from various fields such as psychology, social sciences, and ecology. It provides several definitions of resilience focusing on the ability to adapt and recover from adversity. The document also discusses key factors that influence resilience at the individual and community level, including assets, social support, learning, and agency. Different models of resilience are described, including person-focused models that examine characteristics of resilient individuals, variable-focused models that study relationships between risks and resilience factors, and hybrid pathway models that combine both approaches.

1) The document discusses diffusion theory and the "tipping point" concept where the adoption of an innovation rapidly increases once a critical mass is reached. It outlines the 5 stages of the innovation-decision process and how later adopters are influenced by the decisions of early adopters.
2) It describes how opinion leaders play a key role in driving the tipping point by influencing others in the social system. Once opinion leaders adopt an innovation, their approval can trigger rapid, widespread adoption.
3) The effectiveness of spreading innovations depends on characteristics of the social system and innovation. Targeting opinion leaders is most effective, and heterophilous systems that welcome new ideas are easier to drive to the tipping point than
EVOLUT.ppt
The document discusses sociocultural evolution as characterized by intensification, bureaucratization, and rationalization. Intensification involves increasing complexity in production processes to extract resources from a depleted environment. This leads to bureaucratization as larger populations require more organized social structures. Rationalization is the growing dominance of science, logic, and reason over traditions in both social institutions and individual behavior. The evolutionary process involves positive feedback between intensification, bureaucratization, and rationalization that drives further sociocultural change, though the exact outcomes cannot be predicted.

One To One Computer Conference Presentation Iii
This document discusses change and sustainability in organizations. It provides background on theories of organizational change and identifies key factors that influence whether change initiatives will be successful, including leadership, resources, participation, and addressing the entire system rather than just individuals. The document emphasizes that change is a process, not a single event, and focuses on changing behaviors to impact culture and drive sustainability of initiatives.
Ag final sum-up_westschultz
The document discusses several concepts related to adaptive governance including adaptive co-management, social networks, bridging organizations, and polycentric governance. It emphasizes that adaptive governance is needed to address rapid global change, uncertainty, and surprise. Adaptive governance links evolving knowledge and actions through concepts like collective action, social networks, and transformations. However, relating these concepts and applying them across scales remains a challenge. The document examines how institutions, networks, and bridging organizations at various levels could support adaptive governance of complex social-ecological systems like the Great Barrier Reef, but also acknowledges open questions around power dynamics, governance trade-offs, and institutionalizing
Design for Social Change
The document discusses using the "regimes-on-a-landscape" metaphor to develop frameworks for social change design. It introduces 12 propositions about conceptualizing social systems as state spaces shaped by mutually reinforcing factors within attraction basins ("regimes"). The metaphor differentiates adaptation from transformation, seen as a shift between regimes. It can inform processes like boundary work, visioning, and identifying limits to dominant approaches. The goal is to draw on this systems perspective to facilitate intentional ("design") social change.
Nursing informatics
Nursing informatics integrates nursing, computer science, and information science. It aims to promote health through information and communication technologies. Theory is important for nursing informatics as an emerging discipline. Kurt Lewin's change theory and diffusion of innovation theory can be applied to nursing informatics. Lewin's theory involves three stages - unfreezing, changing, and refreezing. Diffusion of innovation theory explains how innovations spread through populations over time. Both theories can help understand and guide changes in nursing informatics.
Design for Social Innovation: Redesigning at the Intersection of Business, Co...
A new field of practice is emerging at the intersection of design, management, complex systems theory, facilitation, and social change. This practice, sometimes called Design for Social Innovation, is giving birth to approaches for creating with social complexity from the inside. It offers "managing emergence" as a complement to traditional management. And it treats culture as a working material rather than a mysterious and difficult barrier to change. This workshop will provide a survey of Design for Social Innovation: key approaches and practices, case studies, and opportunities they present to the Sustainable Brands community.
Social Entrepreneurship & Measuring Social Impact: 101
Social entrepreneurship aims to solve complex social problems through sustainable business models. It differs from traditional non-profits and businesses in pursuing a double bottom line of social impact and financial sustainability. Social entrepreneurs must understand the embedded context and ecosystem in which problems exist to develop effective solutions. "Wicked problems" are especially difficult to solve because they are situated within complex social systems. Truly addressing wicked problems requires considering all relevant actors and implementing coordinated multi-level solutions. Scaling solutions also requires understanding how approaches must be adapted to different environments and contexts. While measuring social impact is challenging, frameworks provide guidance on assessing evidence of impact at preliminary, moderate, and strong levels.

Software Ecosystem Evolution. It's complex!
This document discusses software ecosystems and their complex evolution. It defines a software ecosystem as interdependent software projects that evolve together. Research analyzes ecosystems using ideas from biology and complex systems across disciplines. Ecosystems are huge networks of thousands of interdependent parts and contributors that are difficult to manage and grow superlinearly over time. They exhibit properties of complex networks like following power laws and being small worlds. Simple models can explain ecosystem growth patterns.
Complex Adaptive Systems Theory
The document provides an introduction to complex adaptive systems theory. It discusses how complex systems like ecologies and social systems exist in a state of dynamic stability at the "edge of chaos" where they have enough stability to sustain themselves but also enough creativity for change and innovation. The edge of chaos allows systems to adapt to changes in their environment. Complex adaptive systems have several key characteristics, including that they are made up of autonomous agents that interact through shared rules in a networked structure, allowing for profuse experimentation and occasional rapid shifts in shape or direction in response to changes.
Changing learning systems insights

Learning outcome:
Students will be able to comprehend the level of complexity intertwined into the concept of sustainable development.
Building Systems
This document discusses systems and system theory. It defines a system as a collection of parts integrated to accomplish an overall goal, with inputs, processes, outputs, and feedback. Systems can be simple or complex and come in many forms, including biological, mechanical, ecological, and social. Complex systems like organizations are made up of interconnected subsystems arranged hierarchically. The application of systems theory to management encourages viewing organizations holistically rather than focusing on individual parts. It emphasizes understanding interactions and feedback loops between subsystems to diagnose problems and maintain perspective. The document also presents an equation that change requires sufficient dissatisfaction with the status quo, a clear vision of the future, and practical steps that outweigh resistance to change.

More here than meets the eye
This document summarizes research findings from the Amplify Cymru programme about three Welsh communities: Aberystwyth, Connah's Quay, and Port Talbot. Over 350 community members participated in workshops, interviews, and discussions to share their perspectives. The research found that these communities value their strong sense of place and local identity. Residents feel pride in their natural environments and cultural assets but also face challenges like lack of opportunities, hidden poverty, and feeling overlooked by outsiders. However, the communities also demonstrate social resilience through everyday support of one another and coming together for celebrations that showcase community strengths and pride in their towns.
