The Next UN: Visions for a Regenerative Future

Silke v. Brockhausen

Business & Entrepreneuriat

Fréquence : 1 épisode/4j. Total Éps: 15

As the UN turns 80 and the campaign for the next Secretary-General gets underway, the world faces protracted conflicts, widening inequalities, and breached planetary boundaries. Against this backdrop, the podcast asks a pressing question: How can the UN become a platform through which people, institutions, and the more-than-human world repair and transform broken systems, and create conditions where life can thrive? Each episode invites regenerative practitioners — policy shapers, Indigenous knowledge-holders, peacebuilders, culture-makers, and frontline humanitarians

Remembering the UN’s Origin - a fireside chat with Jyoti Ma and Alexandra Timor

Saison 1 · Épisode 15

lundi 17 novembre 2025 • Durée 41:44

In this fireside episode, Silke sits with spiritual elder Jyoti Ma and Earth lawyer Alexandra (“Ally”) Pimor to explore a simple yet transformative question: What was the UN born for — and what does that origin ask of us now? Together, they trace the UN’s roots as a spiritual endeavour grounded in peace, dignity, and a collective choice for life, inviting staff to realign everyday actions with this original intention. Ally expands the meaning of “We the peoples” to include rivers, forests, future generations, and more-than-human nations, offering concrete ways to bring these voices into programmes and governance. Both guests return to the power of individual agency, reminding us that while institutions may feel stuck, people never are — each email, meeting, and act of integrity is a seed shaping the future. The episode ultimately offers a hopeful call to dream the UN forward by nurturing reciprocity, deep listening, and care for all life, and to remember that UN staff are not cogs in a machine, but gardeners in a living ecosystem.

Inside the UN: A Practical Look at Transformative Change — with Laurel Patterson

Saison 1 · Épisode 14

mercredi 12 novembre 2025 • Durée 36:45

How can the UN move from talking about transformation to living it? In this powerful episode, Silke von Brockhausen sits down with Laurel Patterson, Head of Strategic Partnerships & Communications at UNDP’s Crisis Bureau, to explore what regeneration really means inside one of the world’s most complex systems.

Together, they unpack why the UN often produces outcomes nobody truly wants—and how shifting our inner and relational lenses can change that. Laurel shares a refreshingly practical roadmap drawn from years of work with Theory U, Transformative Spaces, and SDG Leadership Labs—showing that change starts with how we show up together.

You’ll learn:

How to design meetings that build trust and human connection.
Why naming power dynamics unlocks new possibilities.
How “action-confidence” beats waiting for perfect plans.
Why unlearning—together—is the real key to innovation.
How scaling transformation means deepening ownership, not rolling out toolkits.

Big takeaway: Regeneration in the UN isn’t a project—it’s a daily practice of seeing clearly, acting with courage, and nurturing relationships as the core infrastructure of change.

Listen now to rediscover the art of deep listening, relational leadership, and small steps that can move big systems.

Rewiring the UN: Small Habits, Big Transformation- with Liliana Uruburo

Saison 1 · Épisode 13

mardi 11 novembre 2025 • Durée 33:46

What if the UN could regenerate from the inside out—one meeting, one ritual, one relationship at a time?
In this insightful conversation, host Silke von Brockhausen speaks with Liliana Uruburo, a culture-change advisor in the UN Secretariat’s Business Transformation and Accountability Division. Instead of debating large-scale reforms, they explore what every UN staff member can actually do tomorrow morning to make work more humane, energized, and effective—no matter their grade or duty station.

Liliana introduces the idea of tending the UN’s “social soil”—the web of trust, presence, and relationships that makes everything else grow. Through small, repeatable habits, she shows how we can shift from fatigue and fragmentation toward clarity and collaboration.

Key Themes

Culture before structure: Technology enables change, but people and relationships carry it.
Micro-habits of regeneration: How brief practices like breath resets and collective listening can transform meetings.
Middle management as the system’s pivot: Why the “squeezed middle” determines whether change sticks.
Empowered early-career staff: Building credibility through clarity, kindness, and quiet value creation.
Regeneration as participation: Re-imagining the UN’s renewal as a shared, living process—not another reform task force.

💡 Practical Takeaways

Try these this month:

Open–Listen–Close: Start with a 3-minute reset, practice collective listening mid-meeting, and end with one-line commitments and an energy check.
Borrow before building: Before starting a new initiative, find an existing one and collaborate.
Trust the outputs: Focus on outcomes over optics—flex where, when, and how work gets done.
Find your circle: Join a practice group such as Transformative Spaces or NewWork to keep skills alive and embodied.

How to Regenerate an Organization: Lessons from Mercedes Vans – with Luise Raaschou and Felix Braun

Saison 1 · Épisode 12

mardi 28 octobre 2025 • Durée 38:58

When people talk about “transformation,” it often sounds like a slogan — a shiny new strategy that changes little in reality. This conversation is different. In this episode of The Regeneration Collective Podcast, host Silke von Brockhausen speaks with Luise Raaschou and Felix Braun from Mercedes-Benz Vans Europe, who have quietly led a culture shift inside one of the world’s most traditional, high-pressure industries.

Together, they share how regeneration — the practice of leaving systems, people, and processes better than we found them — can turn even the most hierarchical organization into a living, learning, and energizing system.

Their story offers a roadmap not just for businesses, but for institutions like the United Nations, where mission-driven people are often exhausted by structures that no longer serve life.

Warm Data & the UN: Stop Writing Reports, Start Tending Relationships — with Nora Bateson

Saison 1 · Épisode 11

lundi 20 octobre 2025 • Durée 35:21

Nora Bateson invites the UN to let life through: to work with information that is as alive as the systems we serve. Instead of preloading projects with KPIs, she proposes placing the SDGs at the end—tend the relationships that nourish relationships, then see what goals were actually met. In disaster and conflict, skip the town-hall shopping list; make space for people to be together (childcare, food, time) and allow new patterns to emerge. Warm Data Labs create an ecology of communication where personal stories widen perception—because perception is the action.

Key themes

Regeneration: “Participating in life that makes more life.” Relationships making relationships.
Warm Data: Relational, trans-contextual information living between people, institutions, culture, ecology.
Why metrics fall short: Streams of decontextualized data don’t add up to systemic understanding.
SDGs at the end: Do what’s needed; afterwards, note which goals were met.
Rupture as opening: In crisis, everyday patterns break—don’t impose; support emergence.
No town halls: Don’t ask communities what they need in a competitive frame; it aligns them to power, not to each other.
Make space: Provide childcare, food, time; let relationships re-knit.
Ecology of communication: Personal stories neutralize status, amplify the quiet, soften the loud.
Secretary-General thought experiment: Stop writing reports; bring in people who learn from how nature healsin multiple directions.

Memorable lines

“The information we need has to be as alive as the systems we want to make more life within.”
“Perception is the action.”
“Put the SDGs at the end, not the beginning.”
“Don’t pit communities against each other for funding—help them align to each other, not to you.”

About Nora

Nora Bateson leads the International Bateson Institute in Sweden. She coined Warm Data and developed Warm Data Labs, now facilitated in 40+ countries, to help groups perceive complexity together. She is the author of Small Arcs of Larger Circles and Combining, and director of An Ecology of Mind (about Gregory Bateson).
