Ultimately, we need to design a future for our society that is aligned with the principles for life. By understanding the current unsustainable paradigm and the design flaws that perpetuate it, we can begin to envision a future that is designed for life to flourish and focus our attention on allowing that future to emerge. This section will help you understand the current paradigm, the impacts that are arising, and how to identify them so that we can understand the ‘gap’ between the current situation (baseline) and the desired future. This gap reveals a creative tension that can be used to identify and prioritise solutions to reach the desired vision of the future.
