Creative tools for social cohesion - Rakesh Rootsman Rak
An experienced Permaculture designer teacher, forest garden specialist, yoga teacher, homeopath and reggae DJ. Rakesh has been designing and teaching permaculture to individuals and communities since 2009, and has taught over 500 permaculture, forest gardening, eco village design and related courses.
His design portfolio ranges from large scale forest gardens in eco villages through to many urban community food growing gardens, private farms and back gardens as well as designing collaborative businesses, urban water retention systems and even computer software and documentation systems.
Rakesh is also engaged in intentional community building, using sociocracy and other tools and processes to create positive social bonds within various individual projects and communities. He is also passionate about teaching how to be self-reliant and self-providing in a sustainable way, crafting and creating whatever you need instead of depending. For instance building your own low impact house, capturing and storing energy; fuel efficient heating systems (rocket heaters and stoves); water capture, purification and recycling systems. Rakesh will briefly touch on the emotional dynamics and pitfalls within group processes. He will introduce two effective tools such as Dragon dreaming and Sociocracy in a practical way:
1- Sociocracy is a governance system, best suited for organisations that want to self-govern based on the values of equality. Some people refer to sociocracy as Dynamic Self-Governance or simply Dynamic Governance.
2- Dragon Dreaming, as an inclusive process allows teams to build together a strong vision (dream), turn it into concrete objectives (plan) and actions (doing), and then acknowledge the whole process to move on. As a living system approach, it draws upon insights and inspiration from history, indigenous and diverse spiritual traditions, assisting in the creation of successful organisations and projects. In dragon dreaming the celebration phase, where we recognise and reflect on what we have achieved, learned and experienced is as important as any other phase of a project.
