The periodic meetings of a number of systemists in Asilomar, California.
The general goal of these meetings, originally inspired from the Fuschl Group Conversations , is to freely exchange views about specific human issues - as for ex. education , social design , social organization , social awareness , the future of societies, etc…
These conversations start with a general agenda, but develop in an open way through free debate in subgroups which define their specific agenda for the consideration of more precise aspects of the general agenda.
The conversations conclusions are not prescriptive, but could be called “inspirative”.
