			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So much of how we see the world is constructed by the frames in  which we position our values and our ideas, in turn these frames  ultimately shape our world view.&nbsp; Frames clearly articulated by <a href="http://www.rockridgeinstitute.org/people/lakoff">George LaKoff,</a> are created through language.&nbsp; Catapult Media has launched <a href="http://storyworks.ca/">www.storyworks.ca</a>&nbsp;  to begin to work in partnership with social innovators to craft a new  narrative, to create new frames with the intent of moving towards a  more just and equitable world.</p>
<p>&quot;No problem can be solved from the same consciousness that created it.&nbsp; We must learn to see the world anew&quot;&nbsp; Albert Einstein&nbsp;</p>
<p>  Creating new narratives that shift our world view to move to the  tipping point of progressive change is what storyworks.ca is all  about.&nbsp;

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;">Ubuntu</span></strong><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;"> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;">is a sub-Saharan African  philosophy and way of life.</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;"></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;"> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;">Ubuntu defines what it means to be truly human. </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Tahoma; color: black;">The principles of include dignity, respect, honesty, empathy, caring sharing and  compassion.&nbsp; Social innovation when it takes root does so because it is based in our humanity.&nbsp; It&nbsp; takes root when we can&nbsp; frame&nbsp; the narrative of change as possible in each of our lives&#8230; and in our collective humanity.</span> </p>
<p>Change when rooted in Ubuntu gives birth not just to possibilities but to probabilities. This year I am engaged with social innovators around the world.&nbsp; What they hold in common is an unwaivering belief that humanity has the answers it needs to address some of our most pressing issues.&nbsp; The question is not the &quot;know how&quot; but the &quot;how to&quot;.&nbsp; New models to affect change are underway&#8230; they are nimble, experimental, lively, open-ended, strategic, resourceful and as a result resilient.&nbsp; I will be featuring many of these models in the weeks ahead. </p>
<p>&nbsp;Until then, the Ubuntu way will continue to invite us to work for social equality on the common ground of our shared humanity.</p>
