This workshop brought together a cross-sectoral community of more than 60 practitioners working to regenerate ecosystems in a variety of ways. Experts from areas such as agro-ecology, ecological restoration, permaculture, circular economy, regenerative development, biomimicry, and more came together to launch a process of supporting the Commonwealth as a global leader in regenerative development to effectively address climate change.

The primary result of the workshop was the consensus that there are proven techniques readily available to regenerate the capacity and capabilities of communities and ecosystems, and that the international community of practitioners doing this work is strong. The workshop was an important gathering for mobilizing action, and creating strategies for leveraging and scaling ecological regeneration across the Commonwealth. The full report from the workshop including working processes, workshop flows and notes, outcomes, and next steps is available below.
