From Inner Work to Global Impact
for - program event selection - 2025 - April 2 - 10:30am-12pm GMT - Skoll World Forum - From Inner Work to Global Impact - Stop Reset Go Deep Humanity / cosmolocal - LCE - relevant to - event time conflict - with Building Citizen-Led Movements - solution - watch one live and the other recorded
meeting notes - see below
ANNIKA: - inner work helps us stay sane dealing with the chaos in our work - healing is not fixing - hope is a muscle, go to the "hope gym" - not just personal but collective
EDWIN: - inner WORK - constant, continuous work - how do you scale these things? Is it wrong term to use? Mechanistic? - how do we move to global impact? We don't know yet
LOUISE - inner work saved my - orientate inside away from trauma architecture - colonized and colonizer energies - they longed to be in union - be with all parts of myself - allow alchemy on the outside to the inside - liberate myself from my trauma structures and unfold myself - we cannot be a restorer unless we do that inner work - systeming - verbalizing / articulating it - we are all actors in creating the system - question - where am i systeming from? - answer - I am an interbeing - Am i systeming from the interbeing space or the trauma architecture space? - Where am I seeding from? What energy do I put into my work? - system is not concrete and fixed but fluid - fielding - bringing different human fields together - I can work with hatred and rage on the inside and transmute it so that I don't add to it on the outside
JOHN: - stuck systems and lens of trauma can help us get unstock - 70% of people have experienced trauma - trauma is part of the human experience - people make up systems - so traumatized people makes traumatized systems - fight, flight and freeze happens at both levels - at system level, its fractally similiar - disembodied from wisdom - in state of survival and fear - fixing things - until we deal with the trauma in the people, we will continue to have traumatized systems - More work won't help if it's coming from traumatized people
EDWIN - incremental change - something holding us back - built upon these traumas - Economic metrics are out of touch with how the trauma affects systems - Journey - awareness first, then understanding and inner transformation and finally change - Discussion with funders - most are still stuck in old paradigm of metrics, audits, etc - this comes with trauma because we have no trust on who is on the other side - a big part of the system is built on mistrust, creates more gaps between us - need to become anti-fragile
ANNIKA - Funders have lack of trust because inner work hasn't been done on both sides - As a funder, we really try to create a space of trust - Think of the language we use to be inclusive - How do we make inner work a part of the operating system of how we work? - We looked at 500 mental health organizations over the years - It's so urgent now that we align our work
EDWIN - We have a lot of half-formed thoughts - It's very complex and nobody has cracked it - We have a phrase at Axum that we move at the speed of trust - To do something different, they need to trust you - When I think of the discussions I've had with heads of states and CEOs, these meaningful inner ideas are not often brought up
LAURA - When there's no trust, even if there is no danger, the trauma is still brought up - We need to shift our lens on trauma and become aware of when trauma emerges - quote - inner condition of the intervener determines the success of intervention - Bill O'Brien
LOUISE - I work a lot with nervous system and body system - We need small changes in our nervous system - If I try to do something big, I can re-traumatize myself - We also have a collective nervous system - Restore love to all parts of your system first - Make friends with trees to seed actions from union
JOHN - Become aware of my own trauma triggers - When we see an outsized reaction, we can guess that person is undergoing personal trauma - A settled body settles bodies - If we are calm, it helps calm others
LAURA - Feel where we don't feel grounded, where we shame ourselves, feel compassion there
QUESTIONS - See below
mushrooms and ayuahuasca - is it helpful?
A lot of women forget the feminine energy to climb the ladder and get sick?
backlash - feels like white men were being pushed to do work they weren't ready to do so now reclaiming their comfortable traumatized space
how early do we start to teach this knowledge?
How do organizations hold space for the enormous trauma that the US govt is manufacturing. We need to build this practice into organizations to help deal with the onslaight
Youth are so hungry for being in the presence of others who are wise, compassionate. We can't move faster than the speed of trust but it needs to become accessible.
ANSWERS - See below
LOUISE - Organizations have a huge role to play at this time - We want to reconfigure and transform the trauma - Deep forming teams in organizations to help transform - Trauma fields want to come through human nervous systems to transform - We are both feminine and masculine and the masculine wounding is very important and needs to find the feminine - We cannot go away by ourselves to heal from patriarchy, colonialism energies
ANNIKA - In terms of how we fund, can we fund differently? We need to fund these spaces
EDWIN - I sit on board of Wellbeing project - changemakers go through burnout - how do we prevent this and create a container that can sustain them? - Weve brought 20,000 people in summits who have affected 3 million people. Please come to the Hurts summit in Czec and Wellbeing project - When pendulum swings back from individual space, we should be like a spiral
JOHN - In systems change spaces, trauma is seldom spoken of. - Systems work will not work if we ignore trauma - This is critical
LOUISE - Arundhati Roy - Another world is not only possible but is on its way. On a quiet day, I can hear it breathing.
for - climate crisis - impact of Trump tariff strategy - increasing economic and carbon inequality and precarity for the masses - from - Youtube - Trump wants to crash to benefit the ultra wealthy - Trump's planning to crash the global economy - Richard J Murphy - 2024, Dec
// - SUMMARY - Richard J Murphy provides us with a big picture of Trump's objective in his calculated Tariff strategy - It's not that it makes no sense and is a strategy of a madman - On the contrary, he has a very calculated and maniacal strategy that will result in significantly increasing the wealth of the elites - By creating high tariffs, he will bring about a global economic crash - Like the 2008 and 2020 crash, central banks will print trillions of dollars of money and handout bailouts - It is the elites who will receive these bailouts and inflate the value of their assets - This will - substantially increase the wealth of the rich - substantially increase the precarity of the vast majority of people - increase global inequality - financial inequality and - carbon inequality - This increased precarity is bad news for the climate crisis as a precarious population have less flexibility in reducing their carbon footprint and are more dependent than ever on whatever remain job and resources they still have - Given we have this knowledge of the elite's hidden strategy, can we the people intervene in any way? - We need to have an understanding of how elites see the world - The entire worldview of externalizing investment as a game of accumulation must be understood deeply - in order to find leverage points for rapid system change

Erstmals wurde genau erfasst, welcher Teil der von Waldbränden betroffenen Gebiete sich auf die menschlich verursachte Erhitzung zurückführen lässt. Er wächst seit 20 Jahren deutlich an. Insgesamt kompensieren die auf die Erhitzung zurückgehenden Waldbrände den Rückgang an Bränden durch Entwaldung. Der von Menschen verursachte – und für die Berechnung von Schadensansprüchen relevante – Anteil der CO2-Emissione ist damit deutlich höher als bisher angenommen https://www.carbonbrief.org/climate-change-almost-wipes-out-decline-in-global-area-burned-by-wildfires/
2023 haben Böden und Landpflanzen fast kein CO2 absorbiert. Dieser Kollaps der Landsenken vor allem durch Dürren und Waldbrände wurde in diesem Ausmaß kaum vorausgesehen, und es ist nicht klar, ob auf ihn eine Regeneration folgt. Er stellt Klimamodelle ebenso in Frage wie die meisten nationalen Pläne zum Erreichen von CO2-Neutralität, weil sie auf natürlichen Senken an Land beruhen. Es gibt Anzeichen dafür, dass die steigenden Temperaturen inzwischen auch die CO2-Aufnahmefähigkeit der Meere schwächen.

for - 2nd Trump term - 2nd Trump presidency - 2024 U.S. election - existential threat for climate crisis - Title:Trump 2.0: The climate cannot survive another Trump term - Author: Michael Mann - Date: Nov 5, 2023
Summary - Michael Mann repeats a similiar warning he made before the 2020 U.S. elections. Now the urgency is even greater. - Trump's "Project 2025" fossil-fuel -friendly plan would be a victory for the fossil fuel industry. It would - defund renewable energy research and rollout - decimate the EPA, - encourage drilling and - defund the Loss and Damage Fund, so vital for bringing the rest of the world onboard for rapid decarbonization. - Whoever wins the next U.S. election will be leading the U.S. in the most critical period of the human history because our remaining carbon budget stands at 5 years and 172 days at the current rate we are burning fossil fuels. Most of this time window overlaps with the next term of the U.S. presidency. - While Mann points out that the Inflation Reduction Act only takes us to 40% rather than Paris Climate Agreement 60% less emissions by 2030, it is still a big step in the right direction. - Trump would most definitely take a giant step in the wrong direction. - So Trump could singlehandedly set human civilization on a course of irreversible global devastation.
The GOP has threatened to weaponize a potential second Trump term
for - 2nd Trump term - regressive climate policy
other nations are wary of what a second Trump presidency could portend,
for - 2nd Trump presidency - elimination of loss and damage fund - impact on global decarbonization effort
That’s what the “loss and damage” agreement does,
for - loss and damage fund - global impact
Zwei der Reports, die zum Weltwirtschaftsforum 2024 publiziert wurden, betonen die Bedeutung von Risiken, die mit der globalen Erhitzung, der Zerstörung der Biodiversität und der lebenserhaltenden Systeme des Planeten verbunden sind. Der Artikel der Repubblica zählt klimapolitisch wichtige Ereignisse des Jahres 2024 auf.https://www.repubblica.it/green-and-blue/2024/01/17/news/world_economic_forum_2024_cambiamento_climatico-421899576/
Eine neue Studie ergibt, dass 62.000 bis 70.000 Todesfälle in Europa im Jahr 2022 mit extremer Hitze in Verbindung standen. Mit 18 000 Toten stand Italien dabei an der Spitze. In der Studie werden vor allem Antworten auf methodische Fragen gesucht https://www.repubblica.it/green-and-blue/2023/11/21/news/vittime_decessi_caldo_europa_2022-420898495/
Reportage der New York Times über Veränderungen in der reisproduktion, die vor allem durch die globale Erhitzung erzwungen werden. Aber auch die hohen methanemissionen und ökologische Veränderungen durch den Wasserverbrauch für die reiseproduktion wirken sich aus. Insgesamt gefährdet die Klimakatastrophe gerade in Bezug auf Reis die Lebensmittelsicherheit. Konzerne versuchen durch die Entwicklung von Gentechnik von dieser Situation zu profitieren. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/05/20/climate/rice-farming-climate-change.html
Das Dengue-Fieber bedroht neuen Erkenntnissen der Weltgesundheits-Organisation zufolge inzwischen fast die Hälfte der Menschheit. Globale Erhitzung, Entwaldung und Verstädterung tragen Zug Verbreitung der Mücken bei, die diese und ähnliche Krankheiten übertragen. https://www.repubblica.it/salute/2023/04/21/news/dengue_argentina_allarme_oms-397048836/?ref=RHLF-BG-I397036947-P14-S1-T1
