Francais: Weaving Resilience

  • Life Transitions
Resilience is the capacity of a system to cope with disturbance. In a social-ecological system, resilience reflects the capacity to sustain human well-being in the face of change, by buffering shocks, adapting, and when necessary, transforming. In this course, you will actively engage with the complexity around you, enabling you to begin on a more sustainable and just, future pathway, for yourself, family, community or organisation.

What Our Learners Say

“The content was so rich, I still have a few bookmarked links I've not yet gone through. I enjoyed the structure of the modules and the supportive facilitation.”

Community
”My biggest learning was understanding the interconnectedness of resilience in various systems. I also came to see how my work in climate psychology can be supported by this process. The frameworks used were new to me and it was refreshing and positive to see the amount of work that has already been done in this area.”

Climate Psychologist
“I have already started applying [the learnings from the course] in my own understanding and dealings with the climate crisis, but also in my work, I have started to look at it from the lens of resilience.”

Frequently asked questions

I’ve just arrived here, where should I start?

If you are just getting to know GEN, we recommend you start with the GEN Intro course which will give you the frame of how the network and organisation flow.

A live course will be offered at set times and invites you to engage with a facilitator and other participants. A self-paced course means you can engage in the content as your schedule allows. We also offer courses where you engage in the content yourself and then join gently facilitated group discussions to connect with others.

Visit the Community Events page to see what is available or contact your region.

No! We strive to serve a range of audiences and believe that ecovillage tools can be applied in a range of contexts.

Sometimes. We operate on keeping course fees as low as possible while paying our collaborators fairly. When the essential costs are covered, we can sometimes offer scholarships. Contact Us. 

We would be happy to consider it. Please send a proposal via our contact form. Be sure to include your background on the topic (length of experience and in which contexts), where you have offered the course previously, and your suggested format (live, self paced, pricing etc.)
