July 8 Presentation -
Allies, Assets and Aspects for Preparedness, Resilience and Paradigm Shift
Almost every local public interest organization exists to help make the community a better place to live. That means they have common interests and can be on the same team,,, a potential network for resilience. Assets are tools we have to work with such as communication and people with useful skills for paradigm shift. Aspects of paradigm shift mean what are characteristics of a paradigm shift way of life such as reducing eco footprints, how we manage our own time and money, building civic culture and more. Allies, assets and aspects all add up to taking purposeful and positive action.
