Our Work
The Weaving Lab is a community of weavers learning together how to interconnect people, projects and places to form thriving systems. Our work consists of practising weaving consciously, reflecting on weaving deeply, and talking about weaving clearly.
Weaving for Regeneration and Universal Wellbeing
In The Weaving Lab, we are focused on weaving for systemic change that serves regeneration and universal wellbeing (the interdependent wellbeing of all people and planet together).
Why Weaving is Crucial
We believe it is crucial to advance the practice and profession of weaving for the following reasons:
While we are experiencing a dizzying number of personal, social, cultural, political, economic and ecological crises, we see the potential for a thriving world – if we can effect systemic change towards regeneration and universal wellbeing.
Because personal, social, cultural, political, economic and ecological systems are wholly interdependent, systemic change needs holistic, integrated, and relational approaches.
System change projects need to be coordinated and complementary.
Community and collective action are needed.
Coherence, collaboration, and cocreation are essential – at and between every scale, from local to global.
Facilitating this kind of approach is what we call weaving.
And while it is critical and complex work, it is largely unseen and undervalued.

Weaving systemic change towards thriving.
The Weaving Lab is a community learning together how to interconnect people, projects and places to form thriving systems.
Our Work
Weaving entails raising awareness of our interdependence with each other and the rest of nature; fostering purposeful and synergistic collaborations; as well as developing learning cultures for teams and communities. We see weaving as an essential process for systemic change.
Our Purpose
We are advancing the practice and profession of weaving for universal wellbeing – the interdependent wellbeing of all people and the planet together.
Our Potential
We see an increasing awareness of the interconnection of personal, social and environmental crises; as well as the emergence of pathways to a more thriving world.
To bring about these pathways, we see the need for collaborative processes, diverse communities, interdisciplinary projects, and local-to-global perspectives. This highlights the value of weavers who are skilled in making these interconnections.
