[OSList] who are the right people

I surely don’t. But then again, I have never seen a step-by-step be all that useful. Usually works the way it works. Just about the same as always.

Does anyone have a step by step approach to opening spaces for important societal-future-together conversations in schools and colleges.

this will have been the consequence of 3 generations- but the half of the world under 30 are not

being wholy included or invested in by the other 2 generaitons even though their action networks 

will see the consequences

I see possibility of open space and invitation processes (in schools, colleges, other systems where elders  histiricallyexamine instead of co-create with youth)  as deeply interconnected with my hypotheses but  dont have much clue what to do next

Hi Chris,

I was attempting to understand what you are asking about and I realized I did not understand. I would appreciate you clarifying some of what you have written.

-if you are saying only global youth can mobilize on these issues if sustainability is to be our future, do you want intergenerational participation and if so, why? I ask this to attempt to understand who you would be inviting as you sort out 'whoever comes are the right people'

-why is the goal to create something to do with a sustainable future? Is this not too low a bar? I ask this to attempt to understand a theme if you used OST.

Warmly,

Birgitt

"the people who come are the right people" but sometimes doesnt that depend on how much work has been done on the invitation process to include all sides including those who may not know they are part of the broeken systems

i guess when an open space is about a local community issue its relatively simple to see whether everyone has been included but

 my main concern is on issues only global youth can mobilise if sustainability is to be our future - and yet while i am interested in movements that empower youth  (sytarting with creating jobs) i also see sustainability -whether we win it or lose it - as an intergenerational compound crisis -

does the generation of trump or clinton understand how much they have presided over designing non-sustainable systems?  has mass tv media becomes such an intergenerational liar that we no longer have enough bases for intergenerational trust?  what 5000 people invitation to open space would maximise a movement of networks to combat the national rifle association at least on selling assault guns-

 here are these systems that seem so broken - are we deceiving youth in implying that enough elders will ever come to celebrate youth's best endeavors

I also have a suspicion that eg hackathons viralise their invitations  and get extraordinary collections of young participants in ways 

that open space invitation agents may need to get smarter at - if intergenerational space is to be convened as much as the coming decade of tipping points will require

just thinking aloud- any views?
