Make your own…Discover-ring

The Polycrisis Research Network is a group of researchers at the University of Leeds. They study how big problems like climate change, pollution and people not getting along, are all connected like pieces of a big puzzle.

Instead of looking at each problem one by one, they figure out how they connect with each other, so we can find smarter, longer-lasting solutions and build stronger communities. They use creative, hands-on methods to explain tricky ideas, for example: • Feedback loops - when one thing causes another, like if you shout in a cave and your voice bounces back. • Tipping points - when small changes make a big difference, like adding one more block to a tower and it suddenly falls. • System rhythms - patterns that happen again and again, like the seasons or your heartbeat.

By inviting people to take part in activities, discussions, and projects, the Network helps people understand these ideas through real experience and shows that our actions matter.

The Network want to help people learn from their experiences and come up with clever ideas and work together to make the world a better place.
