GLOBAL RESONANCE PROJECT
The Cocreation Foundation’s mission is to understand and develop the theoretical, methodological and practical aspects of the cultural technique of cocreation as a means to create an abundant and peaceful world for the approximately 10 to 12 billion people which will need to share and coinhabit this earth within a healthy and sustainable ecosphere.
We understand that in order to develop and promote this technique, we first have to immerse in the global fields and processes of cocreation already existing as well as in those fields and processes which are in dire need for cocreative solutions. This deep quality of cognitive research, of connection building, listening, understanding, thinking and theorising, of prototyping and vision-sketching we describe as building resonance.
The Global Resonance Project will build resonance with all forces, elements and participateurs relevant to understanding and forwarding cocreation.
Practically the Global Resonance Project has the intention to connect to and learn from the main actors in the field of transformation, cocreation and process facilitation in various fields such as politics, business, sustainability, social rights, science, education, and others. We will learn from these actors needs, sufferings, endeavours, hopes, ideas and projects.
The goal of the Global Resonance Project is to create a thorough understanding in the field of cocreation by following this resonance process of inquiry, exchange, learning and dialogue.
FORWARDING A PARTICIPATORY LEGISLATIVE REFORM
The current legislative process presents many essential challenges concerning normative demands for high democratic participation, transparency, professional stringency and political effectiveness. Our thesis is that the first draft of a law (usually internal to the house or government) is not optimized in terms of technical competence, diversity of social perspectives and political effectiveness, as the procedure should guarantee. The primary political orientation, the quality and the majority of mistakes are determined in this first draft and are insufficiently corrected and revised afterwards.
With our project, we want to address these challenges and present innovative proposals to suggest reforms for the legislative process.

ISL - Forming interdisciplinary Island Communities of Practice operating for sustainable cultural tourism models
Current pressing issues like the COVID-19 health crisis, climate change and overtourism have revealed the emerging need for tourism choices to be transformed into a new, more sustainable and resilient model. For the ISL project three European islands in Greece, Cyprus and Italy were chosen as case studies. Research shows local island community stakeholders still lack sufficient skills and knowledge on how to effectively plan a sustainable future for their islands.
The aim of the project is to foster cooperation on the islands both on an island level and transnationally, to provide innovative high quality participatory tools for islanders and to raise awareness for the local cultural heritage. The ISL project uses the terminology of “Island Communities of Practice” (ICoP) for the intended bottom-up initiatives withinthose island communities. On each island co-creative workshops with local stakeholders will take place.
In this project the Cocreation Foundation cooperates with three international project partners: Sineterismos Ergazomenon COMMONSPACE from Greece, Centre for Sustainable Peace and Democratic Development - SeeD from Cyprus and the Universita degli Studi di Cagliari from Italy. This project has been funded with support from the European Commission.

Bundeswerkstatt - Demokratie Update deutschland
Unsere Demokratie steht weltweit vor großen Herausforderungen. Ob EU-Wahl, die Wahlen in Frankreich oder die Landtagswahlen in Ostdeutschland – überall wird die bestehende Demokratie in Frage gestellt. Hannah Arendt sagte, Demokratie müsse jeden Tag neu erkämpft werden - sie muss aber auch neu gestaltet werden. Das wollen wir miteinander leisten.
Dafür starten wir nun die Bundeswerkstatt Demokratie Update Deutschland, in der Lösungen, Ideen und Konzepte für demokratische Innovationen entwickelt werden. Sei dabei und gestalte aktiv mit!
🌟 WARUM
Unsere Demokratie steht unter Druck. Wenn wir in Freiheit, Frieden und Wohlstand leben wollen, müssen wir sie schützen und weiterentwickeln.
