Andrew Welch presents at a hybrid meeting of the Canadian Association for the Club of Rome (CACOR) to discuss a peer-reviewed paper that describes a human behaviour crisis as being behind some of our global challenges.  The recording had some technical diffculties, but meeting was really well-received by the members, and the section with the author (from 09:30 to 35:30) is quite clear.

This is the concluding installment of Andrew's 3-part address to the congregation at West Hill United Church.  (View the first or second parts.)  In the previous two months, he related some of his work on values to this congregation's declaration of their values, called VisionWorks.  In this sometimes radical wrap-up, he takes the content of the previous two perspectives to the streets to see how it might inform our actions for the real world.  We are facing an unprecedented crisis, and many say that civilization is on the line.  Andrew's conclusions are unexpected and thought-provoking, as always.

The author was invited back by the Canadian Association for the Club of Rome (CACOR) to give another hour-long PowerPoint talk, introducing some of the more innovative ideas from Our Second Chance.  This lively Zoom presentation, styled as a more in-person session, apparently inspired one of the most lively chat discussions and post-talk Q&As in the CACOR series.

This is the second of Andrew's 3-part address to the congregation at West Hill United Church.  (View the first one.)  In 30-minutes, he shares his ground-breaking discovery on making qualitative values (such as justice, compassion, and spirituality) visible within a model that makes them more accessible to rational study and thought.  This novel application of an existing framework has great potential for helping us to manage our own inner conflicts, as well as seeing our connection to the natural world (which fully embodies the same principles to sustain growth and sufficiency).

Andrew was invited to address the congregation at West Hill United Church, speaking on human values, and specifically referencing their impressive 2-page VisionWorks document.  This half-hour 'sermon' gives an excellent introduction to Andrew's views on what he calls our value personae, as well as opening us up to one of his most important concepts: the contrast between number-based-values and qualitative (or human) values.

A brief promotional video, produced by the Canadian Association for the Club of Rome (CACOR), extracted from a full CACOR talk on The Value Crisis, presented by Andrew Welch.  The video highlights the author's key attribute of number-based value systems - that More is ALWAYS Better.

The author was invited by the Canadian Association for the Club of Rome (CACOR) to give an hour-long PowerPoint talk, introducing The Value Crisis, and relating the material back to the many topics that are of specific interest to CACOR.  The audience was a well-read group of intellectuals, and this Zoom presentation offers an excellent overview of The Value Crisis for that type of viewer.

This Zoom panel discussion was organized by the Canadian Association for the Club of Rome (CACOR).  Andrew Welch opens the discussion with a brief 10-minute presentation, outlining his unique take on the importance of conflict in value systems.

Climate change, cultural diversity, work/life balance, social inequity, electoral reform - all these challenges have a common thread that might surprise you, according to Andrew Welch, author of The Value Crisis.  His unique perspective on numbers and how we measure value offers a subtle but powerful explanation for our accelerating self-destructive behaviours, and what the solutions for the next generation might entail.

The author was invited by Whole Village (an Ecovillage in Caledon, Ontario) to introduce his long-awaited sequel to The Value Crisis.
