"Having a spirit of collaboration and cooperation…is the antithesis of what our current economy. So our current economy is about competition….whereas principles embedded in nature around reciprocity, mutual aid and cooperation.. are so important for a new way."

In this episode we speak with Dr Dimity Podger, a national identity in Regeneration. In our conversation we explore systems change through a regenerative lens. Dimity brings a focus on developing an understanding of living systems so that we can design for mutual value creation for people, planet and communities. We explore what this is, where it gets stuck and how it gets unstuck.

Natter and Gnaw is a Clarion Call podcast for people working together for change that benefits people, place and planet.

Join special guests Bryn Davies (Democracy 4 Dinner) and Polly Cameron (New Democracy and Change Politics) as they explore the concept of Democracy, what shifts we need to make in our thinking and actions to strengthen democracy in our lives and across systems. They also delve into how do we build our efforts from small to collective action.

In this episode, Polly and Bryn investigate topics such as how to think of democracy in terms of who makes what decisions, processes for bringing people together to make complex decisions and stepping away duality such as the two party preferred political system. They also share gems for working together differently such as approaching complexity with an open hand not a closed fist.
