"My online Capra Course is based on my textbook The Systems View of Life, coauthored with Pier Luigi Luisi and published by Cambridge University Press. I have now taught the course for over six years. Our alumni network has 2000+ members in 89 countries."
~ Fritjof Capra
Lectures
This course consists of twelve pre-recorded lectures, with one new lecture being posted each week. Each lecture is about 40 minutes long and is supplemented with downloadable written and visual materials. The course includes exclusive online discussion forums in which Fritjof will participate.
Forums
All students will be able to fully interact both with Fritjof and other participants, posting comments and questions, and sharing materials via the course forums. The number of participants will be strictly limited to 250, to allow high-quality interactions in our discussions.
New! We now offer an opening and a closing circle with Fritjof
Fees
The fees for the course are structured in three tiers, a structure that has been created in order to allow as many people to participate as possible, independent of their current incomes.
A small number of scholarships are also available. Read More
The Forums
Each lecture will have an associated Forum where you can post your comments and questions, and discuss the themes and ideas that Fritjof introduces, both with Fritjof himself and your fellow course participants. These discussions will help develop your systems thinking abilities in a multi-disciplinary environment with participants from a range of backgrounds and competencies.
Participants are encouraged to post their own real-world case studies, projects and initiatives as well as insights gained as the course progresses.
Testimonials
"I am amazed at how interconnected the ideas are coming from this course."
-Helen Black, Canada
"Thank you so much, Fritjof, I have been blessed by your course. It has been one of the most exciting and thrilling experiences of my life. Not only have I been taught by one of my heroes, but also the knowledge has arrived in a very important stage of my life when I am seeing and understanding things that have brought new perspectives and new understandings."
-Carolina S. Rudnick Vizcarra, Chile
"Fritjof, thank you for this learning journey, from evolution, to cognition, to social systems, to ecology. You have brought some of the best minds and theories into a coherent synthesis, and a unified systems view of life. I also liked that you honed in into the central challenges for our times, such as confronting global capitalism, its pursuit of quantitative growth, and its lack of ethics... Our challenge as graduates of this course and as a cohort is to take the knowledge from this course and put it into action, for us to act as leaders to bring forth a sustainable, just and flourishing world."
-Manuel Manga, Brazil
Alumni Network
From the beginning of planning the Capra Course, one of Fritjof’s goals has been to, eventually, build up a global network of individuals and institutions who explore, practice, and teach the systems view of life.
All participants from each Capra Course will automatically be given access to the Capra Course alumni network which will allow you to carry on conversations not only with your current group of participants, but also with those people who have already participated in other versions.
