Global challenges are signaling the urgent need for an unprecedented quality of co-creation, putting SDG 17 on partnerships in the center of solutions. Awareness-led approaches are coming to the surface of sustainability work, pushing us beyond our comfort zone to address the real problems rather than treating the symptoms. Social spaces for trust, deep listening, compassion, nonjudgement, and unconditional love are becoming key. This chapter presents our healing journey within the awareness-led social lab “Beyond Waste: Circular Resources Lab” in the Swiss Romandie. We offer our insights on the values set and self-work needed to experience a deeper understanding of such social spaces and their potential in the context of diversity and increasing complexity. We share serendipitous learnings from our cohosting team's perspective on the orchestration of such space; mindfulness, and its role in it, as well as on the co-creation of prototype solutions. The voices of our cohort participants on their valuable serendipities complement this understanding. We conclude with opening a scientific discussion for further exploration of such healing “unity in diversity” spaces. |
