In this Embodiment Talk I have a conversation with Arjen Wals. Arjen is professor Transformative Learning for Socio-Ecological Sustainability at the Wageningen University. We talk about the importance of embodiment in education. And how we can create education systems that create space for connections with ourselves, the other and the world.

We talk about:
•    What embodiment means for education;
•    How education can help to create true connections with ourselves, the other and the world;
•    The different forms of learning in eduation and how these can contribute to a more sustainable world;
•    How education can teach us to criticize, connect and care. And that vulnerability can exist next to strength;
•    How to integrate a systemic perspective in the education system.

Arjen Wals is professor at the Wageningen University. He also holds a UNESCO Chair of Social Learning and Sustainable Development. He creates learning processes and spaces where there is sufficient room for diversity, creativity and taps into the resourcefulness that is all around us, but remain largely untapped in the search for a world that is more sustainable.
