The Future of Society, Education And Money Public Talks
The Future of Society, Education And Money Public Talks
The total rapid transformation of our society is not only inevitable - it’s already here, according to two speakers visiting the Wellington Region the week of April 25 – 29.
21st century Educationist Zahra Lightway and ‘zeitgeister’ Laurence Boomert, claim to know what “The Future of Society, Education and Money” looks like and will be sharing this in a series of lectures throughout the week.
According to Boomert “Government is fast becoming obsolete as too is our singular system of money, while our education model offers little promise to the futures of 80% of today’s children.”
“Strangely we keep using these systems that we know to be morally, intellectually and physically bankrupt, that are killing us and our planet. We have got to the point where these systems can only be maintained by a kind of ubiquitous corruption that seems less so because we are all in on it. Our situation is not only dire it’s rather embarrassing.”
“Luckily evolution has other plans for us and people are going to surprise themselves with what is unfolding and what they are party to.” he adds.
Such heretical purports have put Boomert under the microscope at times with the British High Commission investigating him and his New Economics Party at the 2011 election and recently the pair’s home was covertly searched not once but twice by the NZ Police under the Operation Concord investigation.
“We are not bitter about this, it’s what empires and systems do especially when they are approaching their use by date and sense their demise” explains Boomert.
“Nowhere is this more explicitly expressed than in the chrysalis,” adds Zahra. “When the butterfly cells first appear the caterpillar cells attack them as if they are foreign invaders, a seemingly hopeless situation but we know how that ends.”
The pair will outline to audiences how the equivalent of the butterfly story is unfolding through the convergence of social innovations with other break-through technologies to transform the human landscape of how people live, learn, do business and most certainly do politics.
These will be delivered at the Newtown Community Centre Tuesday April 26th, Featherston Community Centre Wednesday 27th and The Biz Dojo Friday 29th. Click here for more info: www.thecommunitygame.com
