About the Journal

Awareness-based systems change is an action research approach to transformation that considers systems change from the perspective of evolving consciousness. It is an emergent cross-sectoral, inter- and transdisciplinary field focused on the process of co-inquiry into the deep structures, or interiority, of social systems—what we call social fields—in order to see, sense, and shift them toward greater collective well-being.

The Journal of Awareness-Based Systems Change (JASC) is a place for creative scholarship that is breaking new ground in research and further evolving this emergent field. We aim to reveal and support both rigor and relevance in new forms of scholarship, to highlight promising transformative practices and hotspots of innovation, and to provide a platform for diverse voices in systems change. We see ourselves as one element of a larger intention to support a community of researchers and practitioners who work to advance the field of awareness-based systems change by co-developing the concepts, methods, tools, and frames needed to illuminate and catalyze the evolution of social fields.

JASC is listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) with Seal designation for best practice in open access publishing and is indexed in Scopus.

JASC is published by the Presencing Institute, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. https://www.presencing.org/
