Glass-House Chats: Regenerative Co-design

Co-hosted with Holly Doron, CoLab Dudley

What if we valued how we create more than what we create? If we want to design life-centric, regenerative places, the design journey itself needs to be a regenerative process. Regenerative co-design can bring people together around common curiosities and care of place to invite collective action that can bring us closer to life-centric futures.

This Chat’s co-host will be Holly Doron, of CoLab Dudley, and together we will explore regenerative co-design through the lens of Holly’s research as a means of imagining and acting collectively, ritualising unlearning, reciprocating as part of Living Systems and caring across time.

Join us and bring your own ideas about Regenerative Co-design into the mix.

About Glass-House Chats

Glass-House Chats are monthly hour-long online spaces for conversation and connection, to ask questions and explore ideas, approaches and methods, share learning and meet others.

Series 6 sees us collaborating with a range of inspiring people and organisations who will co-host sessions with us. Each guest co-host will help us bring focus, expertise and experience to conversations about different aspects of the design of places. From empathy to sustainability, we’ll unpick some of the successful ingredients of design and explore what great design can achieve.

About our Co-host

Holly is the regenerative research steward for CoLab Dudley and Dudley People’s School for Climate Justice. Holly’s practice-based PhD explores how we might nurture conditions for regenerative cultures to emerge through Stories of Place: a monthly gathering of co-creators connecting to place, imagining life-centric futures, and acting collectively towards those futures.

How to Take Part

Glass-House Chats are open to anyone with an interest in the event topic. No specific experience or expertise is required to join the conversation. We believe that our Chats only benefit from a wide mix of voices, interests and experiences.

These free online events are kept intentionally small so that everyone taking part can jump in and join the conversation. Where possible, we encourage participants to keep their cameras and microphones on, to pose questions and ideas, and to share stories and links.

To create a safe space for open discussion, the Chatham House Rule is applied. Key discussion points are collated, anonymised and shared after each session.

How to Book

Glass-House Chats are free events, but places are limited, so please register only if you plan to attend.

Please note:

We will record the Chat session to help with capturing the conversation, but this recording will not be made publicly available or shared outside The Glass-House team. Following the event, we will publish a blog capturing key discussion points, but rest assured that no-one will be quoted directly, and no participants will be named. Please feel free to email us at info@theglasshouse.org.uk if you have any queries.
