Big news! After years of excellent contributions, Dan Bishop is starting a new chapter. Dan deeply connects with values, people and causes that help make a better world. He has been working full-time as part of our core team. However, he will now spend most of his time with his family and carrying out projects related to home life. Notwithstanding this, he will continue as one of our Advisors and remain at the heart of our community.
To everyone he knows, Dan would like to say: “in sharing your knowledge and experiences with others, you invariably receive much more than you give, and that has always been the case for me at Caplor Horizons. The core team, the advisors, the wider community and all our wonderful partners and clients are my extended family. The work has been a pleasure. I am constantly inspired and in awe of what a small number of people can achieve. Long may it continue".
What is the "Great Turning"? This interesting concept considers how environmental sustainability links to matters of social justice. In their article, which you can read here, Joanna Macy and Chris Johnstone identify three "dimensions" related to it.
The ideas promoted by this concept align with our belief that there is no change without cultural change. This is why we’ve developed our “Culture for Justice”, which is an integral part of our strategy. You can read more about our culture here.
On the 19th of September, an event to celebrate the work of Joanna Macy will take place. In addition to co-authoring the paper mentioned above, she encourages people to engage with new ways of exploring our world. To register for the event, click here.
