Capra Course: The Systems View of Life

Join Fritjof Capra and explore the new systemic conception of life at the forefront of science and its application in economics, management, politics, design, medicine, and law.

About

Dive into the transformative world of systems thinking with our course, "Unlocking Complexity: A Systems View of Life". Grounded in Fritjov Capra's seminal work, and co-authored with Pier Luigi Luisi, this course takes you on a profound journey through the conceptual models of systems thinking, designed to empower your decision-making across all facets of work and life. Ideal for anyone curious about the interconnectedness of living systems, our course offers a compelling blend of video lectures, enriched by Capra's insights, interactive study groups, and an engaging online forum to foster collective learning and application.

Throughout the course, participants will learn to apply systems thinking to enhance sustainability, collaboration, and health within their communities, companies, and personal lives. By recognizing the distinct dynamics of living systems as opposed to closed, mechanistic ones, learners will cultivate the ability to make more informed, holistic decisions. This experience is not just educational but deeply transformational, providing the tools to see the world and its complex patterns in an entirely new light. Join us for a journey that promises not just to educate but to change the way you perceive and interact with the world around you.

Dates and Duration

The course is offered twice a year: in February and September. It consists of twelve pre-recorded lectures, with one lecture being posted each week. Each lecture is about 40 minutes long. The course will include exclusive online discussion forums in which I participate regularly. All students will be able to fully interact and share materials via the course forums. The number of students will be strictly limited to 250, to allow high-quality interactions in our discussions.
