Collaborative Inquiry - Learning through Action
“There can be no learning without action, and no action without learning” Reg Revans 
Picture

Once a year we invite the members of our community to explore the many manifestations and dimensions of lifelong-lifewide learning and education. Through a process that is formed around participants' own projects of trying to bring about change in themesleves and the world around them we share our experiences and the learning we have gained through them, The idea that we are a community of lifelong-lifewide learners, with a belief that we learn to live a particular life and in living that life we have experiences through which we learn, underpins our culture of trust, respect and empathy that encourages sharing. 

The members of our community are located in many different countries so during an inquiry we interact and share our understandings through a dedicated forum on the Linked In platform and through Zoom meetings. Through our efforts we learn individually and collectively and we share the results of our collaboration with the wider world through our magazine. Since 2021 we have conducted four collaborative inquiries, three of which have focused attention on learning to live a life that is more likely to lead to a future that is more sustainable, not just for ourselves and our families but for humanity, the Earth and all the life it supports. In these inquiries we related our efforts to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Our fifth collaborative inquiry explored how we might use The Earth Charter as a guide to living a life for a more sustainable future. Our sixth inquiry will explore who we are living and learning with AI.
