The event
A 2-day conversation May 26-27 to unite regens in the capital of Europe and explore together
how we can move from sustain(ability) to regen(eration).
We have passed the stage where we can just work towards sustaining the status quo. Instead, we have to move to regenerative solutions, where resources are renewed, capacity is built, and we become more resilient to shocks.
Why now?
We are in the midst of an ecological and social crisis. Climatological imbalance causes floodings, wildfires and pandemics, growing pressure causes burnout, and toxic politics and social media polarise the conversation. We need systems change, not climate change.
Many citizens are taking responsibility to reorganise and to build solutions.
We want to bring these people together in one room.
We invite everyone who is working on regenerative solutions for themselves, our communities, and our planet - from a wide range of sectors, backgrounds, and experiences (such as web3, climate movements, NGOs, and citizen initiatives) - to unite and learn together.
We allow ourselves to be surprised and awed by all the different ways of being regenerative and to taste the different aspects of regenerative finance, farming, activism, culture, healing, collaborating, relating, community-building, and technology; experiencing the weave of all these different ways of being and building.
Program
