About Learning Projects
Early on at The Working Centre, we established the importance of engaged learning as part of our reflective practice. This learning happens in formal and informal ways that inform our work, enliven our exchanges, and allow us to constantly grow and change.
Visit the About Us and Our History pages on this website, where you can find a list of Influential Thinkers who have helped to shape our thoughts and ideas. We constantly read and refresh our thinking and approach to the work through this engaged learning.
We also host a number of community learning and engagement activities, such as:
- Diploma in Local Democracy – Explores how democratic relationships in everyday life form the roots of a democratic society. Participants reflect on their own experiences of democracy and think about what it means to include people in the decisions that affect their lives, what practicing reciprocity looks like, and why everyday equality is necessary for a democratic future.
- Diploma in Ecological Economics – Explores the critical question: Can we have an economy that meets human needs while at the same time being in harmony with nature? The course discussion centres around finding an economy that allows us to build community, live sustainably, and meet human needs at the same time.
Stay tuned to these pages for more updates as these engaged learning activities continue to expand.
