David Korten | Paradigm Shift, Earth Community, Ecological Civilization and the Phantom Wealth

Quick Overview Dr. Korten recounts how he learned about poverty and awoke to nature  while he was on track to become a businessperson. His own mindset  experienced another sudden shift with an encounter on a plane. Over the  years, Dr. Korten has developed the concepts of earth community,  ecological civilization, phantom wealth and more. It is his strong  belief that human beings are living beings, rather than financial  beings, and we depend on a living earth. Moving past our current crisis  requires a fundamental reframing of our understanding of who we are, and  a deep institutional transformation. Critical of the UN SDGs, Dr.  Korten regards the Earth Charter as the best overview statement that  establishes the common ground towards a viable human future.
