What an insightful discussion on Regenerative Futures last Friday - thank you so much Daniel Christian Wahl, Tuukka Toivonen, PhD (Oxford), Delfina Fantini van Ditmar, Minna Halme, Katri Einola and Kimmo J Lipponen ! https://lnkd.in/dbXearPB During the event, we showed an inspiration video (in English, too) on regenerative business, produced together with Sitra and FIBS: https://lnkd.in/dxya6_5h But what did the participants think about regeneration? I inserted the key insights written by our participants into AI, which produced this summary: 💡 1. Regeneration vs. Sustainability: Regeneration is a process, while sustainability is the outcome. Understanding and integrating both is crucial. 💡 2. Holistic Approach: Focus on regenerating not just businesses but entire ecosystems, acknowledging indigenous knowledge alongside scientific perspectives. 💡 3. Three-way Thinking: Emphasize individual, community, and planetary perspectives in decision-making and actions. 💡 4. Transformative Changes: Regenerative thinking requires profound transformation in business practices rather than minor adjustments. 💡 5. Learning from Nature: Nature provides inspiration and guidance for regenerative practices. Ask nature what it wants. 💡 6. Inner Dimension: Regenerative thinking starts with personal inner development and mindset shifts, fostering deeper connections to life. 💡 7. Local Action: Emphasize localized actions and solutions tailored to specific ecosystems and communities. 💡 8. Hope and Inspiration: Despite challenges, there is hope for change. Businesses have the potential to transform and contribute to regenerative practices. 💡 9. Practical Implementation: Understanding theory is important, but practical steps and examples are necessary for effective application of regenerative thinking. 💡 10. Diverse Knowledge: Incorporate arts, humanities, and social sciences alongside natural sciences in transdisciplinary approaches for a comprehensive understanding of regeneration. #regeneration #future #regenerativebusiness #sustainability

Thank you Eeva Hellström for a very enjoyable and stimulating time in Finland. I am deeply impressed by what I learned about how far along in building a field of human relationships across sectors and over time (and with a foresight/anticipation dimension to it) Finnish society is. I so wish to see such approaches inspiring other places.
