Thriving ecology, resilient economy, flourishing society.

As climate breakdown and interdependent social, ecological, and economic crises accelerate, regenerative projects that utilize principles and patterns of nature are emerging around the world.

Regenerative design holds significant promise to create resilient economies, strengthen ecological balance, and address climate change.

Virtuous cycles of co-benefits—social, economic, ecological.

By design, regenerative projects create virtuous cycles of co-benefits in their ecosystems—social, economic, ecological. Regenerative practices lead to returns on multiple forms of capital, long-term resiliency, climate mitigation, and adaptation, resulting in more secure livelihoods.

Realizing the potential of regeneration.

While the benefits of regenerative design have been well-documented, much more needs to be done to realize the potential of regenerative projects. Hundreds of millions of practitioners and communities currently work within systems that perpetuate unsustainable, degenerative practices. Too many projects remain fragile, fragmented, under-resourced—their impact under-realized, their capacity weak. 

 
 
 
 
 
 

Building on the success of the Buckminster Fuller Institute’s (BFI) Fuller Challenge and Spring Prize in identifying solutions to local ecosystem crises—the BFI and Spring Prize have teamed with other pioneers of the regenerative movement to create Regenerosity.

Mobilizing resources, enabling learning, inspiring a movement.

Regenerosity’s purpose is to accelerate regenerative practices by mobilizing resources and technical support for high-potential projects. We marshal resources toward regenerative projects, facilitate peer-learning and knowledge sharing, and inspire a worldwide movement to embrace regenerative practices and principles.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Mobilizing philanthropy

Philanthropy plays a critical role in advancing human, social, and environmental progress. The philanthropic community is starting to focus on land-based, especially agricultural, regeneration as a core area of interest. Initiatives such as the Agroecology Fund, Global Alliance for the Future of Food, 1000 Landscapes and others are moving in the space.

However—more needs to be done, faster and with better strategic collaboration. Regenerosity marshals philanthropic resources toward land and non-land based regeneration, while supporting and collaborating with other actors working towards shared goals.

Our vision

Our vision is as simple as it is ambitious: we envision a world where hundreds of millions of people worldwide embrace regenerative practices — practices that contribute to thriving communities, healthy ecosystems, and a stable climate.

We see a world where land and agriculture innovations are uplifted as vital climate solutions, achieving 42% of the greenhouse gas reductions needed in the next 30 years as outlined by Project Drawdown

We envision a world where systems of capital flow are designed to encourage, support and validate life-affirming regenerative practices. Our mission is to accelerate the adoption of these practices, for the benefit of people and planet. We’re aiming to shift $10 billion to regenerative projects by 2030.

The catalytic potential of partnerships

By observing nature's systems and cycles, we see that there is immense strength and resilience in diversity. The same is true of human and organizational collaboration.

Through partnerships with key organizations, projects and individuals, Regenerosity is building a network that will amplify the innovative work of regenerative practitioners.

We hope that you will join us and we’re excited to welcome you to the Regenerosity Network.

How can you get involved?

We're working with a number of partners with a diverse range of backgrounds - funders, educators, practitioners, policy-makers, and more.

We're excited to welcome you to the network and explore what our partnership looks like. Please feel free to contact us here if you would like any further information.

 

Stories from the field

The true potential of regeneration will be realized when a global movement of actors—businesses, governments, investors, funders, civil society—is mobilized, engaged, and inspired to transform their practices in support of regenerative development.

Regenerosity enables this by using the power of storytelling to inspire others to join the regeneration movement and its subcomponents—agroecology, permaculture, circular economy, ecosystem restoration, regenerative finance and more.
