In this course we will explore the emerging paradigm of regenerative economics – the design of economies based on a living systems framework.  We will begin by investigating the root causes of the polycrisis – the confluence of climate change, rising inequality, social unrest, pandemics among others.  We will look at the underlying assumptions behind economic growth, and where these beliefs originated.  We will explore John Fullerton’s Eight Principles of Regenerative Vitality and learn how to apply them to economies and organizations.  Throughout the course we will hear from guest lecturers and business leaders who are at the forefront of this global transformation, including John Fullerton, President of the Capital Institute.  We will conclude with an exploration into the required cultural transformation and mindset shift required to transition to an economic system that is regenerative and therefore sustainable in the long-term.  This course builds on the concepts of environmental economics.
