Eric Tolson
Eric Tolson currently resides in Mexico City, where he is originally from. Whilst studying high school in the United States, he became engaged in social movements, particularly with the cooperative movement and with alternative economies more broadly. Ever since, he has been dedicated to the construction, connection, and strengthening of self-managed organizations as a life project and as a political venture. He then encountered sociocracy, which became his main focus for almost 4 years. He later received a bachelor’s degree in Social-environmental projects and entrepreneurship from the University of the Environment (UMA) in Valle de Bravo. He likes to think that the success of our species relies on good teamwork, and therefore aspires to get to know, practice, and spread the best praxis for collaboration. A good friend of paradoxes, Eric identifies as a Professional Anarchist. Some of his main interests are: popular pedagogies, gender, philosophy, systems thinking, creative storytelling and ultimate frisbee.
