Everything is connected. This simple truth has profound consequences. It should be obvious that all knowledge is connected too — though this is clearly not the case. Simply look at any course catalogue at a university and you will find that knowledge has been divided into disciplinary silos and academic departments.When I went to college back in 1995, I arrived with a full scholarship that allowed me to meander across the course offerings without selecting a major. It was commonplace that a friend would come across me on campus and we’d strike up a conversation. Many a time it was that I

This article is an invitation into the Design School for Regenerating Earth.People all over the world are gathering to learn how to restore landscapes, collaborate to achieve systemic outcomes, and work together in service to safeguarding our planetary future.When I wrote The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth, it was to show that it really is possible to do this at the necessary scales. We can organize ourselves around holistic, integrated landscapes known as bioregions. Create prosocial groups that know how to work toward shared goals. And weave across features of landscapes to collaborate at continental and planetary scales.https://medium.com/media/03ea951aec929d1ecf25c9b1e659f499/hrefBack in 2020,

It has long been known that the political boundaries of the world as they are today do not readily map onto the landscapes of challenges for ecological or social health. We need a different way of organizing ourselves. The most coherent way to organize humanity is in the bioregional approach of holistic landscapes and cultural identities.One powerful way to do this is embodied in the concept of a bioregional learning center — which is an educational hub for gathering and synthesizing knowledge about local ecology and culture. This ten minute video gives a flavor of the potential that exists to be unleashed

I spent most of my life looking for the school that didn’t exist. Nine years spread across three universities only confirmed that the challenges humanity faces will not be addressed within them — though they can play a role if something new was born.Right now, our team is manifesting the Design School for Regenerating Earth that we aspire to become a vital piece of the new educational tapestry. It grows out of three years after founding Earth Regenerators as a global community of people who (a) get the seriousness of our planetary predicament; and (b) want to help heal people and landscapes in

In the last three years, a tremendous amount of progress has been made to create shared culture and identity around what it means to be an Earth Regenerator. Together we have hosted learning journeys, social gatherings, project incubators, fundraising, on-the-ground efforts and more — all with the deep purpose to safeguard humanity in the midst of planetary crisis.Many of you know the vision laid out in The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth that was published in October 2021. In brief, we must cultivate the ability to grow into a planetary network of regenerative bioregional economies. Each will need to organize itself at

I want to begin sharing how we can learn to “activate” the regeneration of entire bioregions…The work of Bioregional Activators is to create real-world impacts on the ground in different landscapes around the world. This means each landscape needs to learn how to organize itself at the bioregional or territorial scale.Here in Barichara, we are creating a territorial foundation. It is a specific incarnation of something more general. Not every bioregion needs to create a territorial foundation, but every bioregion DOES need the core capacities enabled by what our territorial foundation is doing.Also here in Barichara we are creating an ecoversity.
