CURIOUS MINDS
and conversations to inspire action
Loops of Learning aims to inspire deeper conversations that help us understand the system in which we live and the impact we can have within it.
Loops of Learning embraces the theories and philosophies of human centred design, behavioural psychology, futurist thinking and systems thinking but keeps an open mind.
