People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.
Before modern man can gain control over the forces that now threaten his very existence, he must resume possession of himself. This sets the chief mission for the city of the future: that of creating a visible regional and civic structure, designed to make man at home with his deeper self and his larger world, attached to images of human nature and love. Lewis Mumford, writer
Introduction
Introduction What is this book Integral theory is genuinely post-postmodern or trans-modern, vastly inclusive yet disciplined, so combining richness with rigour, breadth with depth, and giving equal value to the subjective and objective while also grounded in empirical evidence. It guides studies in various fields, providing a conceptual framework that stimulates new insights by highlighting neglected areas of investigation and unexplored relationships. Integral Theory provides a framework for understanding the evolving complexification of values, worldviews, behaviour, culture and systems. That is; subjective and objective worlds as well as intersubjective and interobjective worlds. Simplistically put: Consciousness and Cultures of interior subjective worlds and Capacities and Creations of exterior objective worlds. All based on ‘scientific’ studies appropriate to each domain. www.integralmentors.org
Introduction Walking in the world not talking of the world No one vision is sufficient in and of itself – visions can guide but only by collaborative action in a creative generative process can visions grow and become part of an ongoing positive sociocultural reality. Without taking into account the many worldviews that currently co-exist and crafting ways of including them in a positive and healthy form we will continue to alienate vast sections of all communities and humankind. It is through the growing healthy versions of all the different worldviews that we can attempt to move towards an equitable, regenerative and caring world living within the planetary boundaries. Through action we will move forward – through only ongoing talk we will stagnate and fail. These curation are to be dipped into – explored and used to generate ideas and discussion. A catalyst for collaboration and action. And most importantly grown, modified in a generative form. This is a living document - any suggestions for inclusion in the next volume send to: info@integralmentors.org
How to use this book A taste of many visions in our world. Visions both positive - utopian, and negative - dystopian. Each claiming to be true and enfolding all the others But in reality, they are ‘true’ but partial – and some more ‘true’ than others. Each ‘shallower’ truth transcended but the best is included in the next ‘deeper’ or broader truth. However also creating new and more complex problems. It’s how we use them together and in collaboration that will define how successful we are. It is the morphogenetic pull of caring that will determine how we succeed as a human race. It is the ability to generate an equitable, fair, resilient and regenerative ‘system’ that must drive us forward. The means will be a combination of many of the ideas showcased here but many more still to be discovered on our exciting journey into the future. Held together through a syngeneic Integral Mythological Pluralism Too little courage and we will fail – too much certainty and we will fail. But with care and collaboration we have a chance of success. Bringing forth emergent impact through innovation, syngeneic enfoldment & collaborative effort. And a deeper understanding of a broader framework will be required – that is, a more integral vision. Explore and enjoy – use as many of the ideas as possible, enfolding each into an emergent whole that grows generatively. At each step testing – reformulating – regrouping – recreating. Moving beyond, participating, thro’ stake-holding, thro’ shareholding, to becoming a thrive-holder. www.integralmentors.org www.integralmentors.org
An Integral View What can be said about a more integral model of human possibilities? Before talking about the application of an integral vision — in education, politics, business, health care, and so on — there needs to be some general notion of what it is that is to be applied in the first place. Moving from pluralistic relativism to universal integralism, what kind of map might be found? A more integral cartography might include: • multiple waves of existence, spanning the entire spectrum of consciousness, subconscious to self-conscious to superconscious. •
numerous different streams, modules, or
lines of development, including cognitive, moral, spiritual, aesthetic, somatic, imaginative, interpersonal, etc.
• multiple states of consciousness, including waking, dreaming, sleeping, altered, non-ordinary, and meditative. • numerous different types of consciousness, including gender types, personality types (enneagram, Myers-Briggs, Jungian), and so on. •
multiple brain states and organic factors. Subjects do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different states of subjects bring forth different worlds. © integralMENTORS
An Integral View A more integral cartography might also include: • Cultural factors the extraordinarily important impact of numerous cultural factors, including the rich textures of diverse cultural realities, background contexts, pluralistic perceptions, linguistic semantics, and so on, none of which should be unwarrantedly marginalized, all of which should be included and integrated in a broad web of integral-aperspectival tapestries (and, just as important, a truly "integral transformative practice" would give considerable weight to the importance of relationships, community, culture, and intersubjective factors in general, not as merely a realm of application of spiritual insight, but as a mode of spiritual transformation). • Social system the massively influential forces of the social system, at all levels (from nature to human structures, including the all-important impact of nonhuman social systems, from Gaia to ecosystems). • the importance of the self as the navigator of the great River of Life should not be overlooked. It appears that the self is not a monolithic entity but rather a society of selves with a centre of gravity, which acts to bind the multiple waves, states, streams, and realms into something of a unified organization; the disruption of this organization, at any of its general stages, can result in pathology. Such are a few of the multiple factors that a richly holistic view of the Kosmos might wish to include. At the very least, any model that does not coherently include all of those items is not a very integral model. Ken Wilber
Subjects do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different states of subjects bring forth different worlds.
An Integral View Subjects do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different states of subjects bring forth different worlds. ‌.. meaning that a subject might be at a particular wave of consciousness, in a particular stream of consciousness, in a particular state of consciousness, in one quadrant or another. That means that the phenomena brought forth by various types of human inquiry will be different depending on the quadrants, levels, lines, states, and types of the subjects bringing forth the phenomena. A subject at one wave of consciousness will not enact and bring forth the same worldspace as a subject at another wave; and similarly with quadrants, streams, states, and types (as we will see in more detail). Subjects do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different states of subjects bring forth different worlds.
An Integral View AQAL Drivers The point is simply that, in principle, cross-paradigmatic judgments are possible because there is not simply one world against which paradigms compete for dominance, a kind of king-of-the-hill battle that tosses all losers on the garbage dump, because there are no losers. There is not one world over which all paradigms are fighting for supremacy, but many worlds brought forth by different paradigms, worlds that can be eye-witnessed by the same subjects if they submit to the discipline of the paradigms required to enact those worlds. And while "the" world cannot contain many worlds, awareness can. And because we already know that there are in fact many worlds, it follows that we already are standing in an awareness that has cross-paradigmatic capacity, a capacity that can eventuate in metatheoretical overview, such as the one offered by AQAL. In short, for AQAL meta-theory, the basic levels of consciousness are a measure of the "amount" of awareness or consciousness in any line, but consciousness itself is nothing; it is not a presence but an absence, an opening, a clearing, a space of perspectives, within which phenomena arise. You can't have more or less of consciousness, but you can have more or less phenomena allowed to arise in consciousness. When the entire Kosmos arises in your consciousness, that is Kosmic consciousness—the top of the mountain, so to speak (except there is no top, only an infinitely receding horizon that nonetheless gets bigger and bigger the more that you can love). People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.
An Integral View AQAL Practitioners (psycho-dynamic) "The one thing that you will have changed if you adopt an integral approach is your own awareness, your own consciousness, your own map of human possibilities, a map that has dramatically expanded from organic interventions to caring for a human being in all of his or her extraordinary richness across an entire spectrum that runs from dust to deity, dirt to divinity, even here and now." "..... the crucial ingredient in any integral practice is not the integral tools themselves—with all the conventional and unconventional methods—but the user of those tools, the integrally informed practitioner, who have opened themselves to an entire spectrum of consciousness—matter to body to mind to soul to spirit— and who have thereby acknowledged what seems to be happening in any event: body and mind and spirit are operating in self and culture and nature, and thus health and healing, sickness and wholeness, are all bound up in a multidimensional tapestry that cannot be cut into without fatal haemorrhaging." Ken Wilber

Second Tier Program Interventions Transformative and Translative communication There are two meta-types of communication that can occur through any medium (dialogue, media, etc.):
- transformative communications, and - translative communications Transformative communication attempts to fundamentally change the way someone sees the world—so as to foster sustainable behaviour. Many sustainability communications are transformative; they try to get people to see things differently (such as the interconnectedness of nature and humanity) so that they choose different actions.
Translative communication does the opposite. Striving to connect with people just as they are, motivating and informing them in a way that is in alignment with how they already see the world. Translative communication resonates with a person’s existing worldview, without requiring them to be a different person in order to take action.
On the whole people rarely make major changes in how they see the world, it’s hard to trigger that change, and the workings of that change process largely remain a mystery. As such, sustainability communications that only focus on changing someone’s worldview has less chance of success. To reach people, and to honour them, most sustainability communication should not encourage others to see the world anew, but rather align the core messages with their existing worldview(s).
Translative communications for sustainability are developmentally-appropriate: they resonate with the
stage(s) of consciousness—and the correlative worldview(s)—of an audience. The more tailored sustainability communication is to these different worldviews, the greater the chances of the communication actually ‘taking hold’, so that it fosters sustainable behaviour. People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.

Volatile Things change continuously. What is true today isn’t true tomorrow. Even the nature and dynamics of change change. Uncertain More than ever, we live with a lack of predictability and a prospect for surprise. It is impossible to predict how projects will evolve.. Complex Simple cause-and-effect chains have been replaced by complex interconnected forces and events. Interconnectedness makes all things increasingly complex. Ambiguous You can easily find convincing but totally contradictory information for any assertion. Because of complexity and unpredictability the ubiquitous availability of information has created a mist in which it becomes increasingly difficult to find clarity. People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.

Thus all actions will have
unintended consequences
People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.
No longer are cities defined by a single slowly evolving Worldview as they have tended to be up until the failure of both modern and postmodern Worldviews, to provide fair, equitable and resilient cities for all. Current trends in sustainable or smart cities have proven insufficient to encompass and include the degree of complex thinking needed. A complexity that defies individual or expert group planning. A complexity that needs to involve us all in the development of selforganising evolving cities which allow us to define who we are and what we want from our co-created urban environment. A city capable of holding various different cultures and Worldviews that can be technically resilient and can be socially relevant and culturally inclusive for all its citizens. These workshops are part of the evolving process that defines the actions we all need to be involved in if our cities are to be places we love to be a part of.

Balance, equilibrium and harmony minimise tension and reduce chaos
Emergent and healthy tension that holds things together as they evolve These tensions provide order in the chaos
Strives for: • certainty • order • sureness
Respects: • uncertainty • disorder • insecurity
Places a lot of emphasis on harmony within systems
Respects creative, dynamic and evolving nature of human and natural processes
Integrated strives for uniformity of similar things
Integral strives for a sense of unity in differences (emphasises unity as much as diversity)

Early integral
Often drops out, stays on side-lines or “does own thing” regardless. Shows little passion for others. Absorbed in selfinterest. Pursues a variety of interests based on selfmotivation. Often “lets things be” to excess.
Big-picture view of life systems. Values what is natural – Focuses on competency, responsibility, and freedom of choice. Rejects status, conformity, authoritarian structures. Information and knowledge-based decision making. Capable of fearless, creative problem solving.
Integral
Becomes abstract, other-worldly, tuned into frequencies and energy systems that transcend the anything practical. Little use for people or community because of interaction with life forces in nature, through media and information net-works. Often condescending to those who are not “tuned in”
In tune with large scale of planetary concerns. Can “see” everything at once. Thinks in holographic mosaics. Respects all life – and the implicit order within the universe. Understands mega-systems in nature, social relations, evolution, business and the need to preserve Plant Earth for future generations.

“Scale-linking systems imply a holism in which everything influences, or potentially influences everything else — because everything is in some sense constantly interacting with everything else. Nature is infused with the dynamical interpenetration of the vast and minute, an endless dervish mixing. Matter and energy continually flow across scales, the small informing the large and the large informing the small ... Unless we work with nature’s own finely tuned scale-linking systems we endanger the stability of life on the planet... If we are to properly include ecological concerns within design, we must take seriously the challenge offered by scale linking. We need to discover ways to integrate our design processes across multiple levels of scale and make these processes compatible with natural cycles of water, energy, and material.”

Integral Methodological Pluralism
Second-tier solutions to social problems involve sustained inquiries into ways that will allow each wave (e.g., tribal, traditional, modern,, post-modern and integral) to freely explore its own potentials but in ways that those waves would not construct if left to their own exclusionary practices. In academic settings, integral methodological pluralism allows the creation not so much of more cross-disciplinary studies (which confirm each other in their first-tier prejudices) but in trans-disciplinary studies (which enact a new territory of integral displays between old rivalries). In general, to put it in ‘modern’ terms, any sort of Integral Methodological Pluralism allows the creation of a multi-purpose toolkit for approaching today's complex problems- -individually, socially, and globally- -with more comprehensive solutions that have a chance of actually making a difference. Or, to say the same thing with post-modern terms, an Integral Methodological Pluralism allows a richer diversity of interpretations of life's text to stand forth in a clearing of mutual regard, thus marginalizing no interpretation in the process. On an individual scale, the same approach can be applied to one's own profession, converting it into a practice of integral law, integral medicine, integral business, integral education, integral politics, integral ecology, integral psychotherapy and family practice, and so on. …….. Most of the tools to do all of the above already exist (i.e., the MP of the IMP are already out there). All that is required, at least to get started, are a few integrating principles to initiate the "integral" part of the IMP. These heuristic principles suggest simple ways to practice on those practices already out there, thus quickly converting any given practice into an integral practice. Let's look at three such integrative principles as examples. The Essence of Integral Metatheory: 1. Everybody Is Right but partial 2. Subjects do not perceive worlds but enact them. 3. Non-exclusion People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.

Transformative and Translative communication
There are two meta-types of communication that can occur through any medium (dialogue, media, etc.): - transformative communications, and - translative communications. Transformative communication attempts to fundamentally change the way someone sees the world—so as to foster sustainable behaviour. Many sustainability communications are transformative; they try to get people to see things differently (such as the interconnectedness of nature and humanity) so that they choose different actions. Translative communication does the opposite. Striving to connect with people just as they are, motivating and informing them in a way that is in alignment with how they already see the world. Translative communication resonates with a person’s existing worldview, without requiring them to be a different person in order to take action. On the whole people rarely make major changes in how they see the world, it’s hard to trigger that change, and the workings of that change process largely remain a mystery. As such, sustainability communications that only focus on changing someone’s worldview has less chance of success. To reach people, and to honour them, most sustainability communication should not encourage others to see the world anew, but rather align the core messages with their existing worldview(s). Translative communications for sustainability are developmentally-appropriate: they resonate with the stage(s) of consciousness—and the correlative worldview(s)—of an audience. The more tailored sustainability communication is to these different worldviews, the greater the chances of the communication actually ‘taking hold’, so that it fosters sustainable behaviour.

o Offer citizen participants access to the empirical evidence for climate change and data on impacts of alternative responses through invited experts
o Use of visioning exercises to make the impact of climate change more tangible for individuals and to link it to their phenomenological “sense of place”, e.g. explore how it would feel to have different birds, insects and plants appearing and familiar ones disappearing
o Provide a physical environment conducive to creative deliberation and a facilitator whose behaviours encourage participation and creativity

o Encourage discursive contestation through active facilitation and formation of small groups with shifting membership
o Use information and communication technologies to connect the forums with experts in other locations and with each other

Integral begins with a recognition that we are evolving through growth stages in individual consciousness and culture. Each of these stages has something important to offer: a dignity, insight and capacity, which shines most brightly when combined, or integrated, with the dignity, insights and capacities of other stages. This integration creates more than the sum of its parts, giving rise to new emergent capabilities. These capabilities include the ability to harmonize previously conflicting perspectives and worldviews and to see and enact solutions that have not been seen or tried before.

Second Tier Program Evaluation THIRD-PERSON DATA COLLECTION • Build in content from the indicator table into the feedback forms, proposal questions, grant reports, forum retrospectives, etc. • This will generate actual numbers along the 1-5 spectrum for these indicators, which can be quantified and used in evaluation analysis and reporting. • Any thing you quantify (numbers of participants, proposals or multi sector tables) can be useful to analyze and include.
SECOND-PERSON DATA COLLECTION • At the Evaluation Pod meetings and Development Evaluation (DE) meetings generate discussion and reflection through prompting with skillful DE questions. Then, harvest the insights and doing patternfinding; that is where indicators come in. • Community Liaison carry out this patternfinding afterwards then reflect back to the other participants later. • During the DE sessions, do some group pattern-finding with indicator tables written on flip-charts, and participants use post-it notes to tag where in the spectrum they would say the outcome was achieved. This is based on participant-observation and is co-generated in a focus-group style meeting.
FIRST-PERSON DATA COLLECTION • To generate thick descriptions on these indicators (about how and why changes occurred as they did): • use more in-depth reflective questions posed within one of the activities, such as a qualitative question in a survey • or by doing key-informant interviews with a sample of the target audience.

MetaIntegral is a global transdisciplinary design firm. We support visionary leaders, teams, and organizations to Be IMPACT. To do this we draw on and integrate a number of theories and their associated practices including embodiment theory, design theory, integral theory, and developmental theory. As a result we help you thrive in complexity – transforming the world – from an embodied place of presence and purpose. We love to co-create with you – your events, products, services, books, business models, and business ecosystems among other things. MetaIntegral Capital is the branch of MetaIntegral that is dedicated to the design of wisdom economies – which are accounting systems that integrate multiple types of impact, multiple forms of capital, and multiple bottom lines. This site is devoted to sharing with you our MetaImpact Framework, which lies at the heart of our approach to preserving the wholeness of individuals and systems. MetaImpact Framework At the heart of our approach is The MetaImpact Framework, which measures 4 Types of Impact with 10 Types of Capital which produce 4 Bottom Lines. 4 Types of Impact 10 Types of Capital 4 Bottom Lines www.metacapital.net
Second Tier Program Evaluation 10 Types of Capital Over the last 30 years various individuals have created multiple capital frameworks which include anywhere between 3 and 20 different types of capital. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done an integrative meta-analysis of over a dozen of these frameworks to identify what are the most important forms of capital to include in an expanded framework and how might we combine them into an elegant and intuitive framework â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one that not only includes essential types of capital but highlights the different kinds of relationship between these capitals. In 2011 the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC) began a multi-year global initiative to develop an expanded model of capital. Through their process they identified six types of capital that should be included in an integrated report. We have included all six of these in our model (they are identified with an asterisk after their name in our model). In addition to these six we have included four more that our analysis indicates are necessary for a comprehensive assessment of value creation. Then using Integral Theory we have organized these into four quadrants.

Second Tier Program Evaluation 4 Impacts Clear Impact One of the most common forms of impact is Clear Impact, which measures change in stakeholder performance. Many businesses and organizations include various metrics to assess this area of impact (e.g., skill assessments, analytics, observation tools, and various KPIs). What all these metrics have in common is the focus on objective criteria to track behavior and performance. High Impact The other main form of impact is High Impact, which measures change in stakeholder systems (e.g., supply chains, cash flow, customer engagement) . Many businesses and organizations include various metrics to assess this area of impact (e.g., environmental impact assessments, financial impact assessments, input indicators, and various KPIs). What all these metrics have in common is the focus on interobjective or systemic criteria to track organizational and market dynamics.
These four types of impact combine to create a comprehensive model of impact â&#x20AC;Ś
Wide Impact Over the last decade it has become more common for organizations to include Wide Impact, which measures change in stakeholder relationships. With forms of network analysis and social mapping there have emerged various metrics to assess this area of impact (e.g., 360 Assessments, relationship mapping, interviews, and social impact assessments). What all these metrics have in common is the focus on intersubjective criteria to track the quality and quantity of relationships and their influence. Deep Impact Arguably, one of the most important forms of impact is Deep Impact, which measures change in stakeholder experience. There is a growing awareness among many businesses and organizations that this form of impact needs to be included. Various metrics are used to assess this area of impact (e.g., selfevaluations, psychometrics, satisfaction surveys, and happiness inventories). What all these metrics have in common is the focus on subjective criteria to track somatic, emotional, and psychological dimensions of experience.

Second Tier Program Evaluation 4 Bottom Lines The 10 Capitals and their forms of measurement combine into 4 Bottom Lines. These include the common triple bottom line of Profit, People, and Planet but also adds a 4th – Purpose. While a number of 4 bottom line models have been proposed – some of which even include Purpose as a fourth – our approach to having 4 bottom lines is distinct in at least two ways.
Together these 4 bottom lines combine to form the MetaImpact Framework.
First, the common bottom lines of Profit, People, and Planet are often exclusively defined in terms of what we would call High Impact – with a focus on the systems involved. In contrast to this we redefine each of these bottom lines in a more holistic and integrative fashion – building on the important work of previous uses but avoiding a reductive approach to these bottom lines. Second, we place the four bottom lines around our four quadrant model in a way that highlights specific relationships between the bottom lines. For example, each bottom line shares 2 or 3 forms of capital as part of its constitution. This enables an important form of integration between all four bottom lines.

"Systems theorists are fond of saying that systems theory deals with the “whole of reality” and thus it covers all the holistic bases. For example, they point out that dynamic systems theory can even be used to successfully describe the traffic patterns in large cities. And that is true— the flow patterns of the automobiles follow specific patterns that systems theory captures well. But systems theory cannot tell you if the driver (i.e., the intentionality) of a particular automobile is motivated by Red, Amber, Orange or Green values, and so on—and yet those interior domains contain the key not only to much of human existence and motivation, but to all of the feelings of sentient beings throughout the planet. If all we do is describe the traffic patterns of sentient beings—using ecology, systems theory, chaos and complexity theory— then we have indeed reduced all first-person consciousness to third-person objects, its, and artefacts: we have killed all culture and consciousness." Ken Wilber

Transformation between Stages or Levels of Development
What causes the shift between Stages – especially in the lines - Cognitive, Self and Values. These shifts can be detected in the language or concepts used. Also in what is seen as objective and what is subjective. Shifts usually cause discomfort and complaints at first but if positive movement many ‘ah ha’ moments and excitement. In all these shifts life conditions are important – context [the surface structure] causes shifts in the brain complexity or understanding [deep structure] – how no one is sure.

Once stability and security are achieved, and the afterlife is also guaranteed, the time comes when people begin to question the price. The saintly, puritanical , rigid, sacrificial lifestyle is devoid of pleasure, leisure or adventurous thought. Once again, as with the breaking of tribal bonds, people seeks to free themself from the restrictions and constraints of an authoritarian punitive “suffer now to gain later” world view. New, excess energy is produced in the system, creating perturbations and at first subtle attacks on the established Blue [Amber] Order. Deviation surfaces.

Once assured of their material satisfaction (not necessarily their neighbours) people discover in themself a spiritual void. They have conquered the world, they have explored everywhere, even into space. They have all the human comforts that can be manufactured and purchased. Yet they has not achieved happiness. they finds themself a neophyte in a subjectivistic, humanistic World. They have achieved the good life but at a price. They are envied - perhaps respected - but not liked. Life becomes shallow, meaningless and jaded, their lifestyle has cost them health, family affection, self-respect and what they now perceives to be most important of all - people, community, sensitivity and human Warmth.

Powerful insights gained in the Yellow [Teal] band and implemented in an attempt to solve the global mess caused by the first six levels of human existence, lack means of enforcement. Destruction is still rampant. The ethic: "Recognise, truly notice what life is and you shall know how to behave” makes no sense at all to people with earlier world views. Therefore practicality. If it is realistic that an individual should suffer, suffer he should. If it is realistic to be happy, then it is good to be happy. If the situation calls for authoritarianism, then it is proper to be58authoritarian. If the situation calls for democracy, one should be democratic. Behaviour is “right” and “proper" it is based on todays best possible evidence. What was “right” yesterday may not be so today. The supreme issue in GT is restoration of the world so it may continue – not just human life but life it self. For the first time people are able to face existence in all it dimensions even to the point of valuing inconsistencies, opposites and flat contradictions. This mini crucible ultimately produces a human being who find that the answers are not within ‘reality’, currently available information or historical evidence. TBA

Modes of Participation
Development occurs through the interplay between person and environment, not just by one or the other. It is a potential and can be encouraged and facilitated by appropriate support and challenge. The depth, complexity, and scope of what people notice can expand throughout life. Yet no matter how evolved we become, our knowledge and understanding is always partial and incomplete. As development unfolds, autonomy, freedom, tolerance for difference and ambiguity, as well as flexibility, reflection and skill in interacting with the environment increase, while defences decrease. Overall, worldviews evolve from simple to complex, from static to dynamic, and from egocentric to socio-centric to world-centric. Each later stage in the sequence is more differentiated, integrated, flexible and capable of functioning optimally in a world that is rapidly changing and becoming more complicated. People's stage of development influences what they notice or can become aware of, and therefore what they can describe, articulate, influence, and change. The main reason that learning is as slow as it is, is that learning means giving up ideas, habits, and values. Some of the old “learning” that has to be given up or “unlearned” was useful in the past and is still useful to some of the people in the society. Some of the things that people have to unlearn are traditions that are dear to people, and that may be part of their personal character development. Some of what needs to be forgotten are ways of living that still have important values to people. People do not perceive worlds but enact them. Different mindsets bring forth different worlds.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;In finding the world as we do, we forget all we did to find it as such, and when we are reminded of it in retracing our steps back to indicators, we find little more than a mirror-tomirror image of ourselves and the world. In contrast with what is commonly assumed, a description, when carefully inspected, reveals the properties of the observer. We observers, distinguish ourselves precisely by distinguishing what we apparently are not, the world." Spencer Brown

Guides for Practitioners
Integrally
Informed
The Guides for Integrally Informed Practitioners (adjacent) cover much of the theory behind the Integral Meta-framework used in these volumes. For topics covered in other volumes in this series see the following page. Urban Hub Series These books are a series of presentations for the use of Integral theory or an Integral Meta-framework in understanding cities and urban Thriveability. Although each can stand alone, taken together they give a more rounded appreciation of how this broader framework can help in the analysis and design of thriveable urban environments. Key to an Integral approach to urban design is the notion that although other aspects of urban life are important, people (sentient beings), as individuals and communities, are the primary â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;purposeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for making cities thriveable. All other aspects (technology, transport & infra-structure, health, education, sustain-ability, economic development, etc.) although playing a major part, are secondary.
