SUMMARY:The Kite Nature Project: Monthly Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Together we’ll build friendships and develop our ecosystem thinking skills. Come and get your hands in the soil! \n\n\n\n\nOnce a heritage market garden that fed Cambridge\, the Kite Nature Project at Brandon Court is now being nurtured by residents and Together Culture as a shared permaculture space.\nHere we’re learning to see ourselves as part of nature\, practising ecosystem-thinking\, and building community power step by step\, with neighbours invited into activities all year round. Come explore! \nWhat to expect in these monthly sessions\nEach month you can expect a mix of simple\, accessible gardening tasks (no experience needed)\, and conversation. We’ll discuss ecosystem thinking\, what it means to be a good neighbour\, and permaculture principles – and how each of these concepts relate to our own lives. \nCome and get your hands in the soil and spend an afternoon nurturing something that isn’t yours alone. \nAbout the Kite Nature Project\nThis is a place for us to: \n\nExplore what it means to be a neighbour\nConnect to place by learning about the people who built the Kite\nDevelop our own nature-related identities\nShift our mindset to ecosystem-thinking\nExplore cultural change as the bedrock of building new systems\nBuild new revenue streams that show how community wealth can g\nBuild community power\, step by step.\n\nYou can find out more about the Kite neighbourhood here\, with our Kite Navigator podcast.

SUMMARY:The Kite Nature Project: Play with Ecosystem Thinking
DESCRIPTION:Across three connected sessions\, we’ll explore how ecosystems work\, and how we can apply ecosystem thinking to create change that sticks. \n\n\n\n\nOnce a heritage market garden that fed Cambridge\, the Kite Nature Project at Brandon Court is now being reimagined by residents and Together Culture as a shared permaculture space.\nAs the seasons change\, we’ll gather in the Kite Nature Project to learn from nature\, think in ecosystems\, and grow a deeper sense of nature-relatedness. And yes\, we’ll also get our hands in the dirt. \nAcross three connected sessions\, we’ll use the garden as both classroom and metaphor: exploring how ecosystems work\, how change really happens\, and what it means to cultivate capacity in ourselves\, our work\, and our communities. \nYou’ll: \n\nSpend time in the Kite Nature Project learning practical permaculture principles\nExplore social science frameworks that unlock new ways of seeing your life and work\nChoose something in society that is causing some tension – something you’re interested in changing. This could be in a team at work\, a community you belong to\, or wider society. You’ll work with this across all three sessions.\nConnect with others who care about nature\, systems\, and doing things differently\n\nEach session stands alone\, but they’re designed as a journey. Session 1 widens your lens\, Session 2 explores how change actually happens\, and Session 3 looks at how we cultivate long-term capacity to create societal change. \nIf you’re interested in developing your ecosystem thinking skills for making change at work or in wider society\, this series is for you. Book the full series for the biggest impact. \n\n\nMore information and book tickets \nSession 1: Widening Your Lens – Ecosystem Perspective\nIn this first session\, we’ll slow down\, step into the Kite Nature Project\, and practice seeing the world through an ecosystem lens. \nIn the Kite Nature Project \nWe’ll start by exploring the permaculture zones in our nature project on Prospect Row. You’ll learn how permaculture designers think about space\, energy\, and relationships – and how that shapes where things are planted and how they’re cared for. \nIn social science \nWe’ll introduce Bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems model – a way of understanding how different “zones” of your life (you\, your family\, your work\, your community\, governance and culture) shape who you are and what you believe. You’ll map your own ecosystem so you can literally see the layers that influence you. \nIn your community \nYou’ll then choose something in society that is causing some tension – something you’re interested in changing. We’ll use Brofenbrenner’s model to develop an idea of where an opportunity for evolution might sit. \n  \nSession 2: Understanding Change – The Purpose of Tension in Ecosystems\nChange is rarely neat. Ecosystems – and humans – rely on tension\, uncertainty and difference to adapt and evolve. In Session 2\, we’ll explore how that plays out in nature and in our own ways of thinking about change. \nIn the Kite Nature Project \nWe’ll spend time observing the blossoms. Blossoms are about possibility and transition – beautiful\, temporary\, a little uncertain. We’ll use them as a living prompt for noticing change\, tension\, and the “not yet”. \nIn social science \nDrawing on work from the Good Shift\, a systems thinking and change institute in Australia\, we’ll explore seven different “change worldviews”. It turns out we often assume we’re on the same page about change… when actually\, we’re thinking in totally different ways. How we think shapes what we notice\, what we believe is true\, and how we act. You’ll be invited to discover you own change worldview and notice how it shows up in your life\, work\, and relationships. \nIn your community \nWe’ll bring back the real life scenario you chose in Session 1 and look at it through different change worldviews. What happens if you approach it as something to fix? To nurture? To experiment with? To completely reimagine? \nYou’ll leave with a clearer sense of your own default worldview\, and new options for working with the societal point of tension you’re exploring across the series. \nThis session builds on Session 1\, but you’re welcome even if you missed it. If you can\, join all three for the biggest change impact. \n  \nSession 3: From Service to Cultivation – How Does an Ecosystem Evolve?\nIn our final session\, we’ll zoom out to ask: how do ecosystems – and communities – build capacity over time? What does it mean to move from “providing a service” to cultivating something more resilient and alive? \nIn the Kite Nature Project \nWe’ll share the co-created “What does it mean to be a gardener?” insights from our Brandon Court community development work. Together we’ll explore how a gardener doesn’t just “do tasks”\, but builds capacity – slowly\, patiently – through skills\, deep trust\, experimentation\, and trying new (and sometimes bigger) things. \nIn social science \nWe’ll look at a simple model that contrasts “service delivery” with “capacity building”. For example\, libraries have often been framed as service places – but what would it look like if we saw them as capacity-building places\, where skills\, relationships and confidence grow? \nIn your community \nYou’ll reflect on the journey you’ve taken across the series with the real life scenario you wanted to change\, and how you might shift from “servicing” it (managing\, firefighting\, fixing) to cultivating it (building capacity in yourself\, others\, and your wider ecosystem). \nYou’ll leave with a practical sense of how to use ecosystem thinking for making change at work or in society\, and ideas for next steps in your own change journey. \nThis is the third step in a three-part journey\, and it will be richest if you’ve joined us for Sessions 1 and 2. If you’re able\, we warmly encourage you to book the full series and travel through the whole cycle of developing ecosystem thinking skills.
