Integral Urban Hub is a platform created by integralMENTORS, led by Paul van Schaik, identifying ideas, theories & projects that address complex global challenges, focusing on urban planning, ecosystems, and biospheres from a meta pragmatic perspective. Highlighting that no one vision is sufficient in and of itself – visions can guide but only by collaborative action in a creative generative process can visions grow and become part of an ongoing positive sociocultural reality. Without taking into account the many worldviews that currently co-exist and crafting ways of including them in a positive and healthy form, we will continue to alienate vast sections of all communities.
This is a holistic perspective where each area is treated as a living, dynamic system, with an emphasis on collaboration and sustainability. For Living CARE, this platform provides invaluable insights into creating integrative solutions for urban ecosystems, fostering resilient communities, and promoting regenerative stewardship. iUH publishing is the Creating, curating and publishing component of this platform. iUH creates and publishes the Urban Hub series of books and a number of books by other authors.
