Zoöp for a day

Workshop for organisations

Are you and your team or organization curious about what it is like to be a Zoöp? Are you considering becoming a Zoöp and would you like to know more about what you can expect? Or do you want to use the Zoöp method to develop a more regenerative or nature-inclusive strategy?

This workshop is specifically intended to be given on location at the organization itself and is tailored to your specific wishes. Also suitable for retreats, strategic sessions or special occasions.

In this workshop, the participants, with the help of the Zoönomic Institute and an experienced Speaker for the Living, carry out a holistic basline measurement of the current ecological relationships of the organization, just like a real Zoöp does. This baseline measurement provides the tools for a regenerative strategy.

The workshop works with accessible worksheets, imaginative empathy exercises, observation exercises (preferably outside) and system perspectives.

Duration: 1 day.
Location: At your own location, but at a Zoöp or another location is also possible.
For whom: Teams, departments, organizations, 5 – 40 participants.
Taught by: Depending on the number of participants, one or more people from the Zoönomic Institute and an experienced Speakers for the Living.
Language: Depending on the participants, Dutch or English.
Date: On request. Contact hello@zoop.earth.
Price: On request, depends on group size, number of trainers required, location and required preparation.

How does a Zoöp baseline measurement work, and how does the learning process of the zoönomic annual cycle work? How do you work together with non-human life?
  • You will experience what it is like to look at your organization as an ecosystem with both human and non-human participants and you will receive tools to assess the health of this ecosystem.
  • You will learn how the baseline measurement of a Zoöp works and do a first rough baseline measurement of your own organization.
  • You will work together with a Speaker for the Living and learn how they fulfill their role in a Zoöp;
  • Based on this, you will get new ideas about what needs to change and what decisions you need to make to promote the quality of life of the entire Zoöp.
