b'Welcome to the sixth of the monthly expert panel discussions. As I mentioned before, each month I\\u2019ll be hosting discussions and debates between some of the most prominent voices in regenerative agriculture, soil science, restoration land management and more.In this session, I hosted a discussion on the holistic management framework with my friends and colleagues at Climate Farmers, a non-profit organization working to advance regenerative agriculture in Europe.In this panel I got to speak with three of the most experienced and influential educators from the global network of Savory Hubs to share their knowledge about the wide applications of the holistic management framework. Since holistic management is often only associated with animal grazing, I wanted to hear from the women today about how relevant and influential it can be for people, not only in other types of farming businesses, but also in other aspects of life. In my work with the farming community that we\\u2019re building across Europe, the topic of holistic management keeps coming up because of this frameworks\\u2019 focus on managing the complexity that other forms of decision making work to simplify and reduce. In contrast to those methods, the idea of managing anything, from a business, to a community, relationship, or government, holistically involves understanding the whole and all the complexities within it. This is especially necessary when working with living systems and the unpredictable aspects that come with it.Since these discussions are longer than the regular weekly episodes, I\\u2019ll keep the intro short and jump right into the introductions for our panelists.\\n\\n\\n\\nPrecious Phiri: is a member of the Regeneration International (RI) steering committee and also serves as RI\\u2019s Africa coordinator.
