Holistic consulting.
We help organizations with educational design on sustainability. In addition to design and consulting, we give workshops and talks on many topics, including climate storytelling, sustainability, climate anxiety, and holistic thinking.
We offer dynamic ways of engaging with technical and sociocultural conditions through a range of services.
Adaptive solutions.
The climate communication workshop led by Derek and Naoko at Chautauqua Institution was deeply meaningful to me and other participants. Over the course of four days we learned how to turn our personal stories into shared narratives for climate action and emerged with a sense of hope and empowerment.

I went into the workshop on Climate Stories hoping that it would get me out of my practitioner mode and put me more in touch with the inner calling that drove me to choose environmental protection as a career. The workshop exceeded my expectations. It revived my environmental spirit and enabled me to come back to my policy work with an invigorated sense of mission.
