Co-Systemic Change Models – One Community Weekly Progress Update #273

Co-systemic change models are models that work together to create large-scale change. One Community is creating these models to include sustainable and open source approaches to food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economic design, social architecture, fulfilled living, global stewardship practices, and more. We call this living and creating for The Highest Good of All and our goal is global sustainability.

• Here’s our project overview
• Here’s our world-change methodology
  
• Here’s how this becomes self-replicating
• Here’s how we are open source and free-sharing all the do-it-yourself designs

ONE COMMUNITY WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

One Community is creating co-systemic change models through Highest Good housing that is artistic and beautiful, more affordable, more space efficient, lasts longer, DIY buildable, and constructed with healthy and sustainable materials:

• • • Learn about: Our Upcoming Crowdfunding Campaign
    • Learn about the different village models: 7 Sustainable Village Models
    • Visit the open source portals for the first two: Earthbag Village OS Hub | Straw Bale Village OS Hub

This week the core team updated and reassembled the Murphy bed night stand in 3D to double check our parts changes and test the newest assembly instructions to produce what you see here.

Mike Kowalski (Game Developer) finished his 11th week helping update our renders that are too big for anything but a gaming computer. This week Mike started working on the Earthbag Village (Pod 1).

Michael Hagler (Senior Graphic Designer and Artist) also finished another round of edits and updates for the Cob Village (Pod 3) and the Recycled Materials Village (Pod 6)  pages of the 7-villages book we’re developing, which you can see here:

He also finished another round of final edits to finish this Tree House Village (Pod 7)  page that is now live on the open source hub too.

Mihaela “Michelle” Pinzaru (Interior Designer and Architectural Drafter) also completed her 17th week working on the Tree House Village (Pod 7) residential renders. This week she redesigned the furniture, added lights, and produced these test renders.

DUPLICABLE CITY CENTER PROGRESS

One Community is creating co-systemic change models through a Duplicable and Sustainable City Center that is LEED Platinum certified/Sustainable, can feed 200 people at a time, provide laundry for over 300 people, is beautiful, spacious, and saves resources, money, and space:

• • • Learn about this building and it’s function: Duplicable City Center Open Source Hub

HIGHEST GOOD FOOD PROGRESS

One Community is creating co-systemic change models through Highest Good food that is more diverse, more nutritious, locally grown and sustainable, and part of our open source botanical garden model to support and share bio-diversity:

• • • Learn about the structures: Hoop House Hub | Aquapini & Walipini Open Source Hub
    • See what we’ll be growing: Gardens & Hoop Houses | Large-scale Structures | Food Forest | TA

This week, the core team continued writing the behind-the-scenes narrative and detailed food rollout plan for the various stages of development. We continued research related to mulching and worms which confirmed our desire to continue with mulch rather than tilling. Also, based on our research, we are choosing to use a combination of worm towers and direct composting into our gardens. The worms compost faster and more effectively resulting in the castings going directly into the soil even without the towers. You can see some of this work here.

HIGHEST GOOD EDUCATION PROGRESS

One Community is creating co-systemic change models through Highest Good education that is for all ages, applicable in any environment, adaptable to individual needs, far exceeds traditional education standards, and more fun for both the teachers and the students:

• • • Learn about the components: Education open source hub
    • Learn how the components work together: How to use the Education for Life Program
      

This week, the core team finished work on the Learning for Life – Transference of Knowledge resource by writing the rest of the needed content and creating and adding the final graphics. You can see some of this finished work here. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

We also updated our Carl Orff Schulwerk Method page with new content and an added resource section with the best of the Orff information and evaluation resources we researched and found. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

HIGHEST GOOD SOCIETY PROGRESS

One Community is creating co-systemic change models through a Highest Good society approach to living that is founded on fulfilled living, the study of meeting human needs, Community, and making a difference in the world:

• • • Read the Highest Good society overview: Highest Good Society
    • Learn about the model for fulfilled living and sharing: A Day in the Life
    • Learn about the 4 economic models: RBE | For-profit | Non-profit | Entrepreneurship
    • Learn about our open source community collaboration and management software: The Highest Good Network

This week, the Highest Good Network software team consisting of Sowmya Manohar (Software Engineer, Web Developer & Net Application Developer), Shubhra Mittal (Software Delivery Manager), and Swathy Jayaseelan (Software Developer) continued their work on the software.

This week they changed the reports layout to center everything in the page, worked on the logic to give data to the bar and pie charts, integrated HGN app with CircleCI to enable automated deployment on Surge, implemented web services and UI logic to enable profile pic image size and types limitation, and added a functional timer that automatically fills the clocked time when a user is creating their time entries. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

WHAT ONE COMMUNITY IS CREATING

One Community is creating a place to grow together and change the world together. We are creating a space that helps each other live in integrity with each other and the planet as we strive to be the greatest versions of ourselves, committed to co-systemic change models. We do this by harmoniously respecting each other, nature, and the rest of our one shared planet.

Our goal is to demonstrate what we feel is the most sustainable, healthy, and fun environment we can create. A place based on compassion, kindness, and collaboration. This replicable community will serve as an example for what is possible in terms of co-systemic change models. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

Throughout our design process we are open sourcing and free-sharing everything needed for construction and replication. This includes what we call “Highest Good” approaches to food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economics design, social architecture, fulfilled living, stewardship practices and more, all aimed at co-systemic change models. We are creating these resources for implementation as individual components or complete developments called teacher/demonstration hubs. These hubs will help launch additional hubs as awareness and knowledge grow.

BUILDING THE FIRST OF MANY

One Community will be the first teacher/demonstration hub. It will function as an experiential-learning model that facilitates mass participation to address humanity’s most pressing challenges through: A replicable model for expansion, building seven self-sufficient village/city prototypes, becoming the world leader in open-source sustainability solutions, and evolving and expanding ALL aspects of sustainable living for the co-systemic change models. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

 

WHY ONE COMMUNITY IS CREATING THIS

The One Community self-replicating model is capable of creating a sustainable planet within 30 years through the co-systemic change models. We will achieve this by establishing successful teacher/demonstration hubs on every continent. Villages include designs appropriate for each of the five main types of climates. They also include options for even the most challenged economies, further promoting the ideals of the co-systemic change models.

These hubs will collaborate with one another, share ideas, resources, and work together as a network to heal the planet. They will also transform the global lifestyle to a more enjoyable, fulfilling, healthy, and sustainable one.

The specifics of how One Community is accomplishing this can be found on the One Community Solution Model to Create Solution-creating Models Page. Research supporting and showing the benefits of a model like this can be found on our Research and Resources Articles Archive, furthering the cause of the co-systemic change models. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

Even if we don’t achieve our ultimate goal of global transformation, a self-replicating teacher/demonstration model like this will take a relatively short period of time to positively affect millions while inspiring millions more, contributing to the co-systemic change models.  For One Community residents (the Pioneer Team), the idea of creating and sharing the social and recreational experience with visitors is also fun, exciting, fulfilling, and an additional reason why we are creating this.

INSPIRING SUSTAINABILITY WITH OPEN SOURCE

One Community’s four-phase strategy for the creation of solution models that create solution creating models uses open source blueprints for duplication that simultaneously address all aspects of the human experience (food, energy, housing, education, social inequality and injustice, fulfilled living, etc.). We see these areas as interdependent and requiring a comprehensive solution if humanity is to move ecologically, socially, economically, and permanently towards a truly sustainable future for everyone, ultimately aiming for co-systemic change models.

Our open source model and blueprints engage and inspire people while simultaneously making sustainable living more affordable and easy to replicate. By free-sharing the step-by-step plans people need for duplication, inviting people to participate, and demonstrating sustainable teacher/demonstration hubs as a more desirable way of living, the model will predictably expand on its own. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

It is this approach we see uniting the world and leading to a new Golden Age for humanity. While we understand that not everyone believes this is even possible, we are nonetheless bringing together all those that do see this as possible as the non-profit think tank of forward-thinking individuals willing to design, build, and open source project-launch blueprint and free-share it for The Highest Good of All.

 

COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTION TO HUMANITY’S NEEDS

One Community is open source sharing an evolution of sustainable living that addresses the complete human experience, all in pursuit of co-systemic change models. We are doing this because we see the solutions for global food, housing, energy, education, social inequality, ethical business practices, earth regenerative practices, and a desire for a more fulfilling living experience as inseparably interconnected.

As a comprehensive solution, we are addressing all these areas simultaneously and open source free-sharing everything needed for individual duplication and/or duplication as complete self-replicating teacher/demonstration communities, villages, and cities to be built around the world, all contributing to co-systemic change models. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.

As we address and open source share these areas we will establish a living example of the first teacher/demonstration village purposed to teach others the principles of co-systemic change models. To maximally facilitate duplication, One Community will provide seven duplicable examples and function indefinitely as a place people can visit and a non-profit and open source think tank continuing to further evolve and share solutions in all of the above areas and more.

We will also provide hands-on experience and training. Most importantly, growing upon our sustainable foundation, we will endlessly make this comprehensive solution even more widely known and globally accessible, understandable and diversely duplicable, and inspiring and desirable as a model worth duplicating. This work helps One Community’s mission of co-systemic change models and to create large-scale change.
