Our Take
The opposite of the worldview creating most crises. The challenge is making it operational rather than aspirational. Interdependence is not just a value but a measurable mechanism.
Synonyms/Variants
Relational worldview; Systems thinking; Ubuntu (Southern African framing); Interconnectedness
Typical everyday wording
Everything depends on everything else - stronger through connection.
