Excerpt: "r3.0 is pleased to announce its 11th International Conference, convening 10 – 11 September 2024 in online mode, building on the success of the 10 earlier conferences convened from 2013 to 2023. We at r3.0 consciously take a “margin-centered” approach to programming our Conferences, drawing on the wisdom of communities that are pushed to the edges (tapping into the “abundant edge effects” Principle of Regenerative Vitality). Our Conferences also foster what Joanna Macy calls “Active Hope” — in other words, not blind faith, but rather trust in the actions we take together to tackle our predicaments. One important aspect of this is the ability to collectively grieve what’s dying, killed off by humanity’s status quo systems (including economic systems predicated on perpetual growth and institutions that entrench this status quo) as inspiration to nurture the birth of new ways of being. And we strategically schedule our Conferences to coincide with the shifting seasons, to support participants in reassessing priorities as cracks increasingly emerge in the status quo. We are collapse-aware and -acknowledging. Given these changes we position ourselves and our work program as discussing ‘post-collapse readiness’. This differentiates r3.0 conferences from all others we are aware of."
