The emergent experience of the Southern Catalonia Coevolution Hub
Coevolution Hub is an emergent integral community embedded in a regional ecosystem with the purpose to realize the full I-We potential. The hub impacts in key organizations and systems acting as a
sensor, connector and change engine.
Since the formal kick-off gathering of the Southern Catalonia Coevolution Hub in 2014, with the presence of George Pór and Thomas Hübl among others, nearly 1,000 people have been touched by the hub activities: 6 month integral training program for the university staff, emerging initiatives in several organizations (including a political party) willing to evolve towards teal, systemic rethinking journey through integral lens in regional primary care, etc. What emerges is a sensing engine that connects, at a meso human live scale, integral expertise with the need for more powerful approaches to deal with societal challenges by unleashing the I-We potential. Can a network of integral regional hubs contribute to reinvent Europe? What is our role as integral leaders to make it happen?
