Designing for a Regenerative Civilization

As part of the 7C Resolana Series, this session shares an overview of Cultural Creativity and explores the question “What does building a regenerative ecological society look like?” Through making, team collaboration, learning prompts, and employing different tools at the Hive, we’ll explore how a movement of makers can contribute toward a socially just, wise, and regenerative world. Topics are facilitated through a transdisciplinary and community-based learning approach. The 7C Resolana Series, sponsored by the Chicano Latino Student Affairs (CLSA) and the Hive, explores ecological thought, design, and practice.

Joe Garcia (he, him) is an Adjunct Professor of Community Based Learning at the University of New Mexico, and is the Coordinator of the NSF STEM Scholars program at its School of Engineering.  After living in California and receiving his MA in Culture, Ecology and Sustainable Communities at the New College of California, Joe moved to New Mexico to connect with the land of his ancestors, and to learn from plants and the Earth how to be human on the Earth. A self-identified Chicano, he most cherishes the ancestral knowledge, wisdom, and lived experience that have allowed him to learn, know, and do. He is currently pursuing an MA in Transdisciplinary Analysis at CGU and leads the Resolana Series, a learn-by-doing community space that brings together Ecological Thought, Design and Practice.
