Module 2: Personalized Live Conversations and Quest Mentoring
Last Updated: 2026-06-03 00:14:35
Abstract
The personalized virtual live conversations with invited experts aim to empower professionals to navigate the complexity of tomorrow's accelerating nested crises to lead society toward regeneration across AI, culture, and resilience. Expert contributions are tailored to participants' Quest topics and invitation preferences.
Objective
The programme equips professionals to navigate tomorrow’s complexity of accelerating nested crises, to guide society toward regeneration between technology, AI, cultures, place specificity, and personal resilience, and to take designerly agency in co-creating desirable futures. Participants embody holistic skillsets to relate science, engineering, design, art, embodied practices and inner processes to complex, real-world challenges. They are empowered to navigate complexity and build inner and outer resilience. They acquire a mature and applicable understanding of regeneration, become critical systems thinkers and systemic designers, and hold the inner tools to design for regeneration.
Content
The content in this module expands and deepens what we have learned in the MOOCs and the three CAS while we tailor it to the MAS cohort and their specific Quests. Each student is invited to suggest up to three options for one invitee they would like to dialogue. The DRRS team invites the available expert and hosts the live conversation focusing on the specific student’s request and needs for their Quest development. The DRRS experts are available to mentor each student over multiple sessions and guide them through their individual DRRS Master design thesis development.
