Coevolution with Tom Wessels – Biodiversity University

August 28, 2021 @ 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM

$125

Instructed by Tom Wessels
$125 | Financial Support Available
Prof. Dev. CEUs available.


This course will delve into the scientific principles of self-organization and coevolution. Specifically we will examine how self-organization works to create systems that are energy efficient, stable, and resilient. We will then examine how this process happens in ecosystems through evolutionary time via coevolution creating biologically diverse ecosystems with robust networks of mutually beneficial relationships. After gaining a theoretical foundation we will head into the field and examine numerous examples of coevolved, mutually beneficial interrelationships. We will then head back inside to discuss human systems from the perspective of coevolution to see ways we can create a far more sustainable future.
