The REGEN-Nations program is a 6-month learning journey and prototyping lab using whole systems thinking to design solutions for sociological, cultural, economic, and ecological resilience and regeneration. Weaving together the wisdom of our rich cultural heritage with locally appropriate social and scientific methods and technologies, we aim to explore ways that heal and restore our selves, our communities, and our natural environments together.
While the whole world is in Code Red for climate emergency, the Asia – Pacific region holds many of the world’s rich ecosystems and climate vulnerable nations. With dense populations and great social and political divides, many countries who are already facing challenges prior to the COVID19 pandemic, face more susceptibilities and challenges ahead.
Created by the Global Ecovillage Network Oceania and Asia (GENOA), this course provides you whole-systems education and regenerative practices that empower individuals and communities to develop impactful projects.
