Text of the page (random words):
outcome was required and proposed how to achieve it a picture illustrating example of the written statements based on the learning resources provided scholars discussed and debated the local national and global impact of our lifestyles on the earth s resources arguably the passionate exchanges in relation to carbon offsetting caused the most intense and divided opinion but as an observation also expertly illustrated the depth and breadth of knowledge and all consuming interest in the subject matter by the scholars present regardless of their own political persuasion it was stated that capitalism is eating itself i e by disrespecting and abusing the very resources it actually needs to survive the counter argument contended that yes but we are all buying in to it scholars offered suggestions for alternatives but on observation did we ultimately blame others and shrugged off our responsibility by using capitalism and its fanatical proponents as scapegoats are we as individuals daily buying into and knowledgeably using the exact same system whether we buy green products or not just as guilty of greenwash as those businesses who claim to be mitigating the decimation of nature through utilising technological advancements that rely on as wind solar water power instead a video on carbon offsetting is available here https www youtube com watch v vm0rrobkcrk lucy then brought permaculture as an alternative lifestyle into vivid focus through deftly sharing her own experience of recently spending several months living and working off grid at the grange near thetford forest in norfolk in relating how permaculture principles were enacted at the grange lucy illustrated how self sufficiency not only created a much needed haven for nature but also provided a refuge for refugees through weekly work details workday wednesdays that professed to deliver physical mental emotional and spiritual support a large team of support agencies partner organisations aimed to assist those attending the grange to build their own personal resilience and in the wider and longer term advocates of the grange and of such places of a similar ilk around the uk aim to create a network of places of sanctuary equally for the benefit of all animal and human kind a link to the grange website is available but please do take time to find a guest post on the website from a young egyptian refugee here https www thegrangenorfolk org uk index php blog 34 salah s article lucy kindly provided a printed copy of the post to each of the ssc scholars present at the permaculture learning session laura s and lucy also spoke of newly establishing permaculture principle type projects and protagonists that were beginning to emerge in and around lincoln lincolnshire and elsewhere such as transition towns city of sanctuaries etc as a personal observation i felt this learning session enabled scholars to consider how the ssc could be involved and or support local projects considering permaculture as a way forward in terms of providing breathing spaces for and of hope as well offering an attempt to explore an alternative solution i e communities of the future ends fkj posted in uncategorized thoughts on eco anarchism at the ssc posted on november 15 2018 by socialsciencecentreadmin hi folks in lieu of proper note taking please see below some of my thoughts on the fantastic session on saturday on eco anarchism at the ssc the topic for discussion was anarchism and specifically the social ecology and libertarian municipalism of murray bookchin the concept of assemblies where all members of a community can vote as well as a higher level of groups of assemblies holding each other to account to some degree on issues that impact multiple communities appealed to me although there was a discussion of what this would look like in practice in particular we discussed the idea of what anarchism means with many definitions aiming for the abolishment of the state and all forms of hierarchy we discussed whether this is feasible and whether bookchin s theory abolishes hierarchy or simply certain unaccountable forms of hierarchy is this enough particularly interesting for me were discussions of what we can draw from this mode of thinking and how we can apply it to our lives in lincoln today the school of thought does not offer an exact blueprint for a utopian society rather perhaps ways of organising and approaching collective problems perhaps attempting to run for positions or influence the structure of local councils is something suggested to us by bookchin although within anarchism this is a controversial topic we also saw a video of the zapatista movement in mexico getting a glimpse of how they operate along these lines and what life might look like for them the video has been emailed out to the group in particular we discussed how there is a connection to an understanding of the land and the produce that comes from it and is then worked with and consumed by the community there that is very different to the relationship we have with food and other products here in urban lincoln how would anarchist organising look differently for us in our different context here in lincoln we also discussed the pressing issue of climate change and how time is running out how do we respond to this and how might bookchin s thoughts help us with this we also discussed how for some parts of the world time isn t running out it s already ran out and climate change is a daily reality for them we discussed a lot more this is just the stuff that stood out to me i d welcome reflections from anyone else there too hope you are all well bradley posted in uncategorized women s struggles saturday 24th november posted on november 12 2018 by

the ways in which the co operative movement has impacted on the social economic educational political and psychological history of lincoln paying particular attention to the built environment david talked about the ways in which his involvement with the social science centre has influenced his thinking about the processes of urbanisation david told us how the city can be designed to promoted pro sociality he described this form of design as a practice that aspires to illuminate our present circumstances and the conditions of their historical emergence to facilitate the flourishing of possibilities for people to imagine and govern their own collective futures and to better the chances that these will be humane present at the event were sarah lucy fen phil laura anthony john mike

workshop spider diagrams posted in uncategorized communities of the future posted on september 21 2018 by socialsciencecentreadmin notes from the first meeting of the new ssc term communities of the future saturday 15 september 2018 commencing 10am at mansions of the future lincoln pleased to welcome four new scholars taking the total attendance to eleven we discussed the format of the fortnightly six sessions to follow and the change of dates to ensure we gave maximum publicity to capture the interest of the new students arriving in lincoln bradley agreed to check with david regarding change of date for his session bradley flyers will be produced for scholars to print and distribute where they think most appropriate phil all if we gain a much larger attendance for a session we will request use of another room to allow suitable space for learning phil the ssc overhead projector will be collected from mint lane to enable its use for anyone proposing a session fen session format we discussed whether the person s providing each session should have a definitive title such as teacher facilitator animator guide and so forth there was no overall agreement but we agreed that each session was primarily about learning from each other although each session will have a particular subject and scholars may have no prior understanding of the subject it was discussed that future sessions should not follow entirely the same format as last term e g the ubiquitous jug and mug method where there is simply an hour long lecture and then questions afterwards the ssc promotes a co operative experience of education and does not wish to replicate the standard structure of learning via lectures alone a new scholar annie whose initial education was provided in china explained how students were given an interpretation of a concept in order to answer and provoke questioning that then enabled improved skills and a personal understanding of different philosophies for ssc scholars it was proposed that a much more interactive way of learning via the new term sessions is preferable such as short introductions of the subject questions put to scholars by the session interpreter and vice versa instant feedback visual interpretations shared reading debates workshop methods etc it was also proposed that an additional session could be arranged to pit one philosophy against another i e socialism and eco anarchism on trial in a citizens jury type session which would be open to all to attend date and time tbc those in attendance who will be delivering a session discussed how they expected their session to unfold and the conversation led on whether prior reading would be available to potential scholars this then expanded the conversation to whether the course should be guided by a particular principal book mike helpfully suggested the education of radical democracy by one of the ssc scholars sarah amsler laura agreed to contact sarah to gain her permission and seek her advice on one chapter to focus upon for those with limited time to read the whole book or gain access to it laura s further discussion on suggested reading culminated in a whole host of potential reading i e emma goldman naomi klein rene eddo lodge rachel carson and so on it was proposed that each scholar could recommend one or two books that other scholars would enjoy this could be included as part of their personal profile a new aspect to be added onto the ssc website to help with engaging new scholars the profiles are not mandatory but for those wishing to join the ssc an insight into the diverse background of current scholars may act as an incentive personnel profiles and recommended reading can be sent to phil for updating the website all phil in referring back to how scholars engaged with learning and studying in the early days of the ssc fen remembered that lucy had recalled that she felt more involved when she produced either a piece of writing poem joint collage or artwork something constructive at the end of the sessions term to share with others it was then suggested by laura that each session should have a dedicated note taker to not only record our learning but share with those scholars who could not physically attend the notes did not necessarily have to be lengthy or even written visual or pictorial representations etc of the sessions would be encouraged laura called for volunteers to note take each session and these are recorded below it was agreed at the end of the term the sixth session emergent learning all scholars would be requested to bring along a 500 word summary of what they felt they had learnt over the 5 previous sessions the summaries would be anonymous and shared in a group discussion as part of this session it would also focus on what was missing from the previous sessions and also discuss what topics scholars would like to cover in the next term the session will also possibly be more of a celebration with a chance to enjoy a nibble and drink time and date tbc phil the new session dates are 29 september ownership led by bradley notes by mike 13 october co operative lincoln led by david and karolina

creating a common vision as part of the ssc constitution on a lighter note scholars said they would be very interested in hearing of sarah s recent workshop adventures in mexico fen the next planning
