We’re facing a convergence of complex crises, e.g. climate change, the rise of AI, deepening social inequality, and how we respond will shape the future of our species and planet. I believe resolving these challenges demands nothing less than a collective cultural enlightenment. To bring this about in my research I focus on three interconnected areas.

First, inner cultivation: I believe that in many regards “(R)evolution is an inside job,”, meaning that we need deep self-exploration and self-transformation, helping us to grow more mindful, compassionate, and wise.

Second, community-building: community is central to everything I do. Researching the important ingredients are for creating generative social fields that let our natural prosocial tendencies surface and cultivating group spaces grounded in trust, care, and belonging.

Third, planetary coherence: I believe systemic problems call for systemic solutions, so one important project is to raise our collective consciousness and strengthen our shared capacity for sense-making, decision-making, and coordinated action. Only with strong coherence and alignment will we be able to address the current meta-crisis.
