Designing Resilient Regenerative Systems - Tobias Luthe & Daniel Wahl in conversation
Channel: Daniel Christian Wahl
Date: 21/04/2023

On March 27th, I had the joy of using the Voices of the ReGeneration podcast to shine a bit more of a light on the amazing work of my friend Tobias Luthe.

Some of your might have learned about the series of Massive Open Online Courses that ETH Zürich 's 'Systemic Design Lab' and partners have started to offer with overwhelming success last year. More than 2500 people from over 100 countries signed up for this free offer and an active more than a 1000 people strong Mighty Networkds DRRS community evolved out of the first successful run.

These MOOCs which I had the pleasure of advising on and co-curating to an extent will continue to be offered and will evolve as the learning and the community evolves. With amazing contributions by Fritjof Capra, Jeremy Lent, Nora Bateson and many others.

The next step in this building of an educational offer that transforms the learner as well as the people providing input and the institutions involved is the development of a series of Certificate of Advanced Studies offered through ETH Zürich which will eventually lead to the creation of an executive masters programme.

In this conversation we explore not just these programmes but who Tobias is and how his own commitment to embodied practice and applying regenerative design in specific places with specific communities have helped shape the programme which draws on his international network as both an academic but also a mountaineer, ski expedition leader and community based practitioner with his own MonViso Institute in the Italian alps.
