Joe Brewer and the Design School for Regenerating Earth will be among us

Growing from the success of similar events in the great lakes bioregion, we have invited the Design School for Regenerating Earth to join us for a month long “Bioregional Activation Tour” here in Salmon Nation.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Joe is a global leader in bioregional regeneration and system complexity. He is a transdisciplinary scholar with a background in both earth sciences and cognitive sciences. He’s an inspiring speaker and leading-edge systems complexity thinker.

He’s currently doing on-the-ground regeneration work in a 500,000-hectare (~1.5 million-acre) bioregion around Barichara, Colombia, and helping to create a global bioregional network. He is the founder of the Design School for Regenerating Earth and the author of The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth.

He will lead a series of conversations, workshops and presentations to weave, highlight and empower amazing place-based networks, innovations and on-the-ground work happening across watersheds in the Cascadia bioregion.

These activations will partner with local teams to organize community workshops, presentations, discuss problems in their areas, and reimagine shared frameworks of stewardship that better represent the places we call home.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”5/12″][vc_single_image image=”883″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded” css=”.vc_custom_1694427865239{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-radius: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1694091255678{padding-top: 80px !important;padding-bottom: 80px !important;background: #f2f4e7 url(https://regeneratecascadia.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/14/2023/09/mountain.jpg?id=859) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1694091170232{margin-bottom: 12px !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/6″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text el_class=”medium-text” css=”.vc_custom_1694091181278{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]
