Facilitators

Evelyn is an ethnobotanist based in Scotland, researching plant lore in the Highlands and Islands. In parallel with this, she’s writing a book which traces the herbal work of a former Schumacher College student, the late Frank Cook, on his journeys in southern Africa where Evelyn lived for 20 years. From her Masters course in Holistic Science in 2012-13, she has begun to use Goethe’s way of science as her practice and to share it with others. She’s a mentor for one of the college’s distance learning courses, and has been a regular facilitator here since early 2014.

Maria became an organisational change consultant and facilitator after a Masters in “Economics for Transition” at Schumacher College. She is a specialist in applying complex living systems theory and collaborative methodologies focusing on leadership, values, culture creation and the structures and methodologies needed in our organizations to better understand and thrive within the complex, changeable and uncertain reality we live in.
