[https://www.slu.se/en/calendar/2026/03/ray-ison/](https://www.slu.se/en/calendar/2026/03/ray-ison/) **Webinar abstract**____ Research is a practice that can be systematic, systemic or both. Systematic practice is essentially linear and associated with simple cause and effect. In contrast systemic practice is relational and encompasses feedback dynamics; it is thus circular, recursive and adapted to context. These two concepts (systemic/systematic) can be understood as a self-negating, either/or, pair (a dualism) or as modes of praxis that can form a unity, a whole, by epistemologically responsible practitioners (i.e., a duality). Claims for research practice are that it can provide new understandings and (situated?) improvements, though all too often this is expressed as the production of ‘new knowledge’ in a simplistic manifestation of the linear model of knowledge production, rather than embodied enactment of knowing. Drawing on his own agricultural education, his research and ‘teaching’ practice and his turn to Systems scholarship: social learning; systemic co-inquiry; systemic governance and the design of learning systems, Ray will explore the constraints to effective situational improvement that have come through the institutionalisation of the linear model of knowledge production, scholarship which began with the publication of: Russell, D.B., Ison, R.L., Gamble, D.R. & Williams, R.K. (1989) A Critical Review of Rural Extension Theory and Practice. Australian Wool Corporation/ University of Western Sydney (Hawkesbury). 67pp. He will finish with some personal reflections on a 55 year ‘career’ within (or near) the domain of agriculture (understood as one of the main domains in which human-biosphere relations are manifest through the enactment of ‘human activity systems’ that can be the product of systemic (co)design).","""Descheemaeker Katrien""","""Part of a larger event""","""CopSyS Community""",https://system-s.org/files/WebinarTransformingHumanActivitySystems_imagebf_image_Ray_Ison_WUR_webinar_20260218153753_20260218153753.webp,2026-03-17T10:00:00+01:00,2026-03-17T11:30:00+01:00,"""Video conferencing""",https://www.slu.se/en/calendar/2026/03/ray-ison/,,,,Pays-Bas,"{""latitude"":"""",""longitude"":"""",""geometries"":""""}",,,, "06/05/2026 15:50:56","06/05/2026 16:10:10","📢 NEW TRAINING OPPORTUNITY: Modelling the Agroecological Transition of Your Territory by MAELAB","MAELAB is organizing a training course titled “Thinking and Simulating the Agroecological Transition of Your Territory with the MAELIA Platform” 🗓️ June 23–25, 📍Colmar (INRAE Center) 🎯 The objective: to enable participants to understand the challenges of a territorial approach to agroecological transition and its assessment using the MAELIA platform. 📊 By the end of the training, participants will be able to identify relevant datasets, modify input data to build scenarios, compare scenarios, interpret platform outputs, and assess relevant action levers at the territorial scale. 🌍Curretly delivered in French and in-person (Colmar, FRANCE), MAELAB is actively considering the development of English-language versions adapted to other regional and institutional contexts.
