With cont ributors from that issue\, we’ll explore how we can track\, sustain\, an d fan the flames of emerging innovations across our global community.\n\n\ n\nTogether\, we’ll explore:\n\n\n\n\nHow to track and sustain the innov ations and offshoots of AI\n\n\n\nWhat an “encyclopedia of AI innovation s” might look like in practice\n\n\n\nWays to ensure that new ideas move from inspiration to fruition—and stay alive\n\n\n\nPractices for fannin g the flames of emerging work across our global community\n\n\n\n\nOur goa l isn’t only to celebrate what’s already been shared\, but to co-creat e a process for continuously tracking and nurturing the ongoing evolution of Appreciative Inquiry.\n\n\n\nWe’d love for you to be part of this con versation—your voice\, experience\, and imagination will help shape what comes next.\n\n\n\nAbout the Issue\n\n\n\nOne of the strengths of Appreci ative Inquiry is that David Cooperrider and other early AI thought leaders were committed to keeping AI open source and available to all. The co-edi tors of this issue are increasingly aware of the bounty of AI offshoots an d innovations that are evolving around the world. Their hope for this issu e is that it will plant the seeds for more offshoots to flourish.\n\n\n\nA rticles and Contributors to the Issue:\n\n\n\n\nIgniting Hope\, Love and P ositive Change: Appreciative Inquiry Principles in Action\, \;Wendy Wh ite and Lisa Marie Main\n\n\n\nFrom Climate Anxiety to Climate Resilience\ , \;Alex Arnold\n\n\n\nRegenerative Business Growth: Using Ecosystem S trengths to Build a Better World\, \;Bernard Mohr\n\n\n\nBridging Appr eciative Inquiry and ‘Money Work’: Creating a ‘Grandchild-Proof’ F uture\, \;Joep C. de Jong\n\n\n\nAppreciative Inquiry\, Social Identit ies and Behavior Change\, \;Cathy Royal\n\n\n\nReimagining Place and A ppreciate Inquiry Practice Through Transdisciplinary\, Technology-Driven A pproaches in New Zealand\, \;Maggie Buxton and Kim Newall\n\n\n\nA Jou rney: Evolving Appreciative Inquiry Practice in Higher Education and Resil iencey\, \;Jeanie Cockell and Joan McArthur-Blair\n\n\n\nLeveraging Ap preciative Intelligence for Healing Trauma with Survivors of Human Traffic king\, \;Carol Metzker\n\n\n\nReflecting on Our Journey Sharing Apprec iative Inquiry Within the British National Health Service\, \;Kayleigh Barnett\, Katy Fisher\, Daniel Hodgkiss\, Suzanne Quinney\n\n\n\nReinvent ion is The Strategy: Breathing New Life into Change Management Gone Wrong\ , \;Nadya Zhexembayeva\n\n\n\nIcky or Wow!
