This book presents five critical dimensions on relationships, institutions, produc-
tion, organisation, and governance from design and systems perspectives for the
systematic transition of unstable and vulnerable communities across the world to
sustainable community systems.
• The first section discusses features of relationships and processes to deepen
cooperation and trust within a community.
• The second section examines institutions within and outside a district to
foster synergy across institutions within a district and to minimise negative
externalities on local communities within a district.
• The third section deals with food production systems that are nature-
friendly, resilient, efficient and sustainable.
• The fourth section discusses the design of producer organisations that can
graduate to become sustainable community enterprise systems.
•The fifth section focuses on community governance that can facilitate
decentralised, participatory, transparent and democratic local governance
systems.
This book
• offers a fresh perspective on design thinking for optimising internal design
consistencies.
• provides a systems perspective on building sustainable community systems
at the lowest governance unit in different countries, such as Ward/Gram
Panchayat/Panchayat Council/Gewong/Union Council/GN.
• gives insights into design & systems perspectives towards building
sustainable community systems within a district of any country across the
world.
