Interview with Looby Macnamara
Leading the Edge of Cultural Emergence
- How can we facilitate cultural change?
- What do we want the new culture and new story to look like?
- What part can we play in helping it to emerge?
Looby Macnamara has designed a regenerative right livelihood that translates the use of permaculture principles and design for people based systems. Her latest work, Cultural Emergence, explores the questions above, and is a profoundly effective toolkit to support personal and global shifts towards a regenerative culture. This work is being developed with input from Jon Young, Starhawk, & Maddy Harland, and will be shared in her forthcoming book Activating Cultural Emergence.
