Talking About Values - Eaves

Dear conservatives on the Left and Right – and those beholden to them.

We would like to break up with you.

Do These Resonate With Us?There's a tectonic shift rocking the social, political, and economic landscape

We want a sustainable, humanized life.

We want renewable, transparent, responsive, and people-oriented organizations.

We want a society built around sustainable communities.

We want open, engaged and deep democracy — everywhere.

We want open institutions, fit for survival, designed to grow and share wealth, that seek to create markets, not own them.

We believe in emergent and bottom-up.

We want citizens to be hackers, creators and... citizens.

We want an eco-system that rewards talent, ideas, productivity and collaboration – we want a meritocracy.

ChangeCamp is...

A post-partisan community of citizens

A third space commons outside institutions

A platform for collaboration

A set of emerging ideas

A set of methods and tools

A conversation

Both local and national/global

ChangeCamp is not...

An ideology

A political party or interest group

An advocacy organization

A replacement for representative democracy

The Web didn’t invent community.

The question is how do we restore community.

“The essential challenge is to transform the isolation and

self-interest within our communities into

connectedness and caring for the whole.” - Peter Block

The work is to build social fabric, for its own sake and to enable accountability among citizens.

Strong associational life is central

Citizens convening other citizens create an alternative future

The small group is the unit of transformation

All transformation is linguistic, community is a conversation

Principles - Peter Block
