The world as it is today is largely built on competition, economic growth, extractivism, and personal gain. We owe many of today’s comforts to this story, but it’s clear that we’ve reached its limit. Our planet isn’t big enough for it and it leads to too much suffering and injustice throughout the communities of our shared world. And we simply aren’t able to express our full potential like this. Our potential to be connected beings. To experience deep meaning and purpose. To express our uniqueness in diversity. To be of service to something larger than ourselves. Our potential to love the world. 

 

We live amidst the (re)awakening of the story of regeneration. It’s emerging all around us. In agriculture, in business, in community building, in urban planning, in finance, and so forth. If all these regenerative currents come together, and strengthen each other, then yes: it is possible to collectively redesign human presence on Earth. For this to happen, education is key. It is high time that education institutions around the world become nourishing grounds for holistic worldviews, love for all life, critical thinking, and transformative practice. We’ve got work to do!
