Systems Science as a Tool for Accelerated Collective Learning

From the Tablets of the Divine Plan to the plans of the Universal House of Justice, many elements of what is now called "Systems Science" are demonstrated. This talk will characterize many of these shared features with a special focus on the current Nine Year Plan. It will also introduce, in a participatory manner, the motivations and some of the methodologies from systems science that could be used in advancing the current plan. Many of these methodologies could be used by individuals or small teams, or by institutions and planning agencies at broader scales.
