"A society which does not pay

a future". M.Y. 1991

Connectivity:
Network Age’s New Literacy
Only once in many generations do human beings –and the communities we
cultivate - participate in system change of the order facing those alive today. Mapping the urgent Opportunities & Threats
of this to human sustainability cannot be understated. Connectivity is the new literacy and needs be included in learning
experiences from primary education up. The man-made connectivity networks of banking and nature-made system of water are two
fundamental flows. Today’s classes of 9 year olds, 10s, could be cross-culturally united in online learning and storytelling
if adults are serious about the future’s mutual responsibility to each other. The most inspiring leap forward for womankind -and family sustainability investment purposes - was the 2006 Nobel
