Plexlearning Placed-based Development
The Education for Development and Support Network (EDSN) is an association of Plexlearning neighborhood academies dedicated to advancing mindfulness-centered, Research-to-Practice community engagement in support of sustainability and desired quality of life.
EDSN leverages trusted neighborhood relationships, sponsored research, collective resources, and open education to advance local ambitions. For example, innovation, capacity building, entrepreneurship, socioeconomic empowerment, accountable governance, and
inalienable
freedoms. It facilitates organizational self-study, external peer-reviews, quality assurances, risk management, and accountability among participating groups and organizations.

Programs that Presume Education is Life Itself
EDSN's AI-powered programs remove barriers and fill critical gaps in building sustainable socioeconomic bridges that lead to desirable quality-of-life, careers, and thriving neighborhood communities.
Our Plexlearning programs foster long-term Open Access ecosystems for quality-of-life solutions. They seamlessly integrate formal education and informal learning with life and of being. These cost-sharing solutions include entrepreneurship incubators, neighborhood makerspaces, workforce retooling, technical certifications, career management, socioeconomic scaffoldings, resident neighborhood fellowships, holistic financial education, and lifestyle-vocations that empower participants to continuously learn, share, and adopt.
