SEVEN CIRCLES OF WISDOM
Is a research consultancy agent for processes of social transformation, social engeneering and design and academic support in the field of post structural, qualitative, discourse oriented research. It provides research based tools to perform processes of innovation and transformation in a holistic and thorough way. It provides an alternative, complementary podium for knowledge construction. It holds a holistic view on knowledge as you can read on the philosophy page. It considers different forms of knowledge construction such as participative structures. It promotes and facilitates research in spaces that often remain unseen or untouched, such as the deeper levels of values and believes that underly visible structures of practices such as education. Or the hidden sides of silence, intuition and wisdom within each of us. Or the dynamics between theory and practice, between structure and agency and between individuals who fail to reach a full understanding of the various perspectives each of them brings to the table. Seven Circles of Wisdom, therefore, is helpful for processes of intersubjectivity, in which different participants or stakeholders seek to agree on a particular perspective or problem.
