One of our three presentations of our #4 Lab meeting on Sept 9th will be: 💡 "Systemic investing in global food and agriculture" by Tania Rodriguez Riestra, CO_Capital and CO_Plataforma and Vivian Valencia, PhD, Bishop's University Tania and Vivian will present how CO_ conceptualises and operationalises systems change in their investment strategy. CO_ is a systemic investing collective that enables steward partners to align their capital with their systems change objectives. CO_ primarily operates in Latin America. In our lab we really like to ask questions to our speakers, so let us start already: ❓ Have you been experimenting (or are you considering to experiment) the use of systems mapping and/or co-design to shape your investment strategies? How? ❓ Which stakeholders have you involved to operationalise systems change? What are the key challenges you are facing in your operationalisation? ❓ Finally, would you have any specific question or suggestion you would like to ask yourself to our audience - especially for refining your current systems mapping and/or co-design practices? We hope we'll be able to discuss some of these points, and hopefully even more, next week 😊 🙏 👉 To all of you: if you wish, feel free to anticipate your questions or share your ideas here below. 👉 All details of our #4 Lab meeting are here: https://lnkd.in/dxQdRad6
