The Dandelion Strategy for 1,000 Bioregional Learning Centers

About This Resource

Joe Brewer presents the Dandelion Strategy, a framework for seeding 1,000 bioregional learning centers worldwide by 2035. Drawing on the late Donella Meadows' call for a planetary network of bioregional learning centers, Brewer outlines how the Design School for Regenerating Earth is organizing local groups into regional clusters that exchange knowledge and resources across landscapes. The strategy emphasizes resilience through diversity: seed regenerative cultures in as many local places as possible, knowing that strength comes from a distributed network rather than any single effort. Brewer invites viewers to join the Design School and help bring this vision to life in their own bioregions.
