The STIR Academy is an open space related participatory learning environment within the overall context of Sustainocracy and its essential values for our human existence. We apply our own learning techniques referred to as “Participatory Learning”. We provide the contextual mindset and the open space for self leadership and creativity.
Online academy
You can learn about Sustainocracy, values driven entrepreneurship and more at you own pace and in your own timezone via our online program. You are asked to put the learning into practice directly. That is also the basis for email and zoom interaction with STIR.
Youth engagement – Innovation Hubs
In collaboration with universities and high school environments we create learning environments and Innovation Hubs. Open space creativity is stimulated and measured through potential societal impact, applicability and continuity potential. Programs range from hightech ICT, A.I. to creative communication, regenerative productivity, care for health, mobility, etc.
Erasmus+ exchanges
Together with different partners in European countries we develop youth exchange programs that are contextually set up within the mindset and framework of Sustainocracy.
Social healing and wellness (travel arrangement)
Together with wellness partners in different countries we develop people’s turning points in the perception of their own wellness, awareness, health, trauma processing and more. Horse riding therapy, acupuncture, energetic massages, cultural awareness and differentiation, healthy food, hugs, etc are all part of the options on offer. Our partners are not part of the tourist networks. They are partners in our COS3i community for social inclusion and innovation.
Creating your own Sustainocratic venture
Representing the open space of shared responsibilities between local people and institutional stakeholders is a challenging position. When we asked the Open A.I. about the reasons why this was possible with AiREAS in the Netherlands, this online Chat GPT provided a blueprint of its working. Learning the routine at first hand may get you to develop such local platform too for the benefit of all involved. The theory alone, adopted in practice in your own environment, will open up a unique learning curve for you.
4 x WIN entrepreneurship for institutional leaders
Institutions (business, government, science) were born within a certain contextual environment and history. When this context changes, for instance into the 4 x WIN approach, everything changes for the institution, its leadership and its surroundings. The transformation has unique benefits but the process is complex and demanding. After the introduction phase in Eindhoven the learning continues within your own institutional domain with the direct support of the ideological father of 4 x WIN and serial 4 x WIN entrepreneur.
4 x WIN entrepreneurship for starters or small and medium sized enterprises
Finance driven business development (1 x WIN) has a totally different mentality than values driven (4 x WIN) entrepreneurship. Eventually over time all will become 4 x WIN or equivalent. But the transition is complex for existing structures. New entrepreneurship however has great possibilities to develop directly into this Pyramid Paradigm of multidimensional entrepreneurship. In many occasions we already have 4 x WIN business ideas ready on the shelf for global expansion. We call those the ripe apples that fall from the apple tree.
Local regenerative food systems
There are many possible initiatives within the domain of our FRE2SH community for the development of local regenerative food systems. Various training environments are available. It starts with an orientation of all the options, the mindset and practices in the world. Then there are special hands on engagement options in different fields of the food system, from food generation in collaboration with nature, or with the use of technology, to food distribution, food awareness, cooking and food design. Together with our partners you become one of us and together we develop a way to feed all people in the world and eradicate poverty, hunger and inequality
Air quality, from measurement systems to societal transformation
Our current societies and cultures are highly pollutant and energy dependent at the expense of our individual and collective health. But air pollution is large invisible which is why it hardly affects our awareness until it is too late. Making visible the invisible is more complex that just placing a sensor somewhere. And if we manage to do it then it becomes a challenges to get the health driven changes introduced and supported in society. With air quality as an umbrella we can observe at society with a fresh look and find ways to positively make a difference, preferably together as stakeholders within the same community.
