RDNA Cultural Mentoring Program

RDNA 2011-12: Program Underway

Contact: Regenerative Design Institute for information on enrollment

We need authentic, powerful leaders, who are ready to take our communities into a sustainable future. The goal of the RDNA Cultural Mentoring program is to provide the training for you to step into this role.

As a participant, you’ll work with lead staff to design, build and support the weekly learning culture for the ongoing Regenerative Design and Nature Awareness (RDNA) program. You have the opportunity to directly apply these teachings as a team of mentors during weekly permaculture and nature connection projects.

The power of 8 Shields Cultural Mentoring is multi-dimensional. You’ll walk away with a complex understanding of how to :

  • Build effective invisible structures in community design
  • Help lead communities to create resilient and abundant ecologies, economies and cultures
  • Awaken the gift in yourself and others, so each can find their contribution to the community and live an empowered, meaningful life
  • Design a complex learning village
  • Facilitate essential nature connection
  • Unfold the designer and leader that exists in all of us

What: Learn the essential skills of mentoring and how to weave a dynamic learning culture using the 8 Shields Cultural Mentoring Model developed by Jon Young. Learn mentoring concepts and apply them by supporting the learning culture of the RDNA program alongside the guidance of experienced staff.

When: August 2010 to May 2011
