Funding Systems Change
Foundations play an important role in enabling and guiding action towards a more sustainable and ethical future. The increasing complexity of the challenges we are facing and the need to work towards systemic change has motivated us to convene actors from the field that are interested in exploring this topic further. Our intention is to co-create a series of stakeholder dialogues with the aim to ideate and prototype novel modes of collaboration and funding to enable and enhance social innovation and systemic change at scale.
Sustainable Working Experiences in Organizations
How can we use examples from sports and nature as new ways of sustainable working experiences in organizations?
Future Dialogues
Crises cause great challenges, conflicts and traumatic experiences. At the same time, however, they create spaces for new opportunities to arise.
Renewing Education
Our education system is based on functional and knowledge learning. Plans, instructions, school-clock, time and performance are key. Personal development and natural growth is undervalued in the school and in the company environment. Many sectors of economy are in a huge transformation process and industries are more and more fully automatized.
Gender & Inclusion
The gender and inclusion working group started their exploration with researching the effects the COVID-19 crisis had on gender relations, especially on women.
Storytelling for a Regenerative Future
Our systems and societal structures are based on stories, narratives, paradigms, even though most of the time we are not aware of it.
Democracy in Transformation
Citizens-led solutions to empower democratic decision-making for complex problem solving
As a society, we need to tackle the climate and ecological crisis. The “Democracy in transformation” working group of Nova Helvetia aims to find out how we can solve these complex problems that require political efficiency by implementing alternative forms of a society-led democracy.
Sustainable Cities and Neighbourhoods
The COVID-19 crisis offered an unparalleled opportunity to reflect on how we live together in the city: our dependencies, relationships, blind spots and processes, as well as our stories and mental models that hold our society together.
One Health & Climate
COVID-19 has delivered a stark lesson about the global interconnectedness of the health of humans, animals and our planet, known as the One Health concept. In the times of a drastically warming climate, the decisions that are taken during the next 18 months will fundamentally define the health of all future living beings.
Nova Helvetia
