What is worth doing in a time of crisis? Dougald Hine, author of At Work in the Ruins: Finding Our Place in the Time of Science, Climate Change, Pandemics and All the Other Emergencies, encourages us to “stop worrying about making sense according to the logic of the world that is ending. Then look for ways to make good ruins.”

What does that mean?

“Making good ruins means to release resources from existing structures and systems to contribute to the conditions of possibility for worlds worth living in in the times to come.”

Releasing resources also means releasing the energy and creativity that is now tied up in old ways of thinking and being. For Dougald Hine, there is a love in the ruins that shines as the old falls apart.

Learning to make good ruins calls us to learn to be human together. In this time of polarization and fragmentation, there seems to be little chance to share humanity. Dougald Hine invites us into humility and a renewal of the rituals that bring humans together in being human.

You are invited to join Dougald Hine and Elizabeth Debold in an inquiry into how to make good ruins and find our place in this time of crisis. evolve Live events are meant to be co-creative, giving you the opportunity to engage with Dougald and Elizabeth and with like-minded explorers of this time of transition. Together we can make this event an opening to new perspectives that can give us direction and inspiration in this time of crisis.

Elizabeth

Elizabeth Debold, Ed.D. is a developmental psychologist, writer, activist, researcher, and co-developer of emergent Interbeing practice. For the past decade, she has been an editor of evolve Magazin, a German-language quarterly, where she writes feature articles on gender. For over thirty years, she has been engaged in discovering and exploring the potentials of collective emergence. With her partner, Dr. Thomas Steininger, she has developed a dialogical process of “Emergent Interbeing,” that enables us to co-consciously engage with differences to create unexpected synergies. Through the platform of evolve World, she, Thomas, and their team of practitioners seek, in some small but meaningful way, to catalyze islands of coherence in a fragmented world. Through events such as the 24-hour online vigil One World Bearing Witness, she is helping to bring sacred activism into the global digital age.
