If you are receiving this invitation, you probably believe that practicing reciprocity and cultivating this interdependence is urgently needed to unwind the climate crisis, and is ultimately what makes us human.

People often think of this as a kind of spiritual thing… something personal. You can think of it like a covenant, between ourselves and the world which sustains us.

At Regen Foundation, we are committed to embedding this covenant into the social technologies and institutions which drive our world.

In 2025… while the traditional climate financial industry is basically collapsing, we are deploying a multi-scalar approach, raising 2 million dollars to develop a series of ground-breaking proof of concepts for what a regenerative future might look like.

We are reaching out to our network to ask if you are anyone you know resonates with this theory and this practice... We ask you to consider making a tax deductible donation to the Regen Foundation this year.

Every little bit helps! Now is the time.

Below you can see details about select projects to understand better where we are coming from.

Ecological Institutions

We are prototyping a framework to expand the legibility of the more-than-human world; from inert resources to living institutions.

ts essentially hacking corporate personhood to create “earth native” institutions. We are doing this using an elegant integration of Rights of Nature law, regenerative economics, and blockchain protocols.

The idea has resonated with several indigenous nations, and now in collaboraation we are exploring Ecological Institutions where non-humans can possess their own land titles and contracts, license their own data, compensate their guardians, safeguard their biodiversity, pressure their political delegates, and own their own currency.

In 2025 we will release the first generation of EI’s to the public. This entails participatory workshopping with IPLC collaborators, covenant design, software development, as well as rigorous documentation and comms.

Recentering Legitimacy

Centering the validation of information locally. is the fundamental way that stewards, local communities remain in the value creation loop!

However to date, there is no rigorous framework designed to maximize both data integrity and the inclusion of local stewards.

We are building that, and actually blockchains and incentive engineering could be very helpful in the process.

Centering local validation wherever possible is a fundamental way to keep the wind in the sails of grassroots stewardship in order to actually help!

In 2025 we are publishing the whitepaper and partnering with 6 steward communities in Ecuador, Kenya, Peru, New Zealand and elsewhere.

Claims Run the World

It’s true. Upstream of making a new biocultural credit, carbon credit, impact NFT, or just grant reporting in general, is a collection of claims about your “Nature-Positive” impacts.

At Regen Network, we are creating an Attestation Engine which underpins a new paradigm in environmentally-aware institutions and infrastructure. Think of it as an oracle. A system which allows real-world events and outcomes to be inputs which drive economics and policy decisions.

We are building the data architecture for a planetary sense organ which leverages distributed consensus and incentive alignment to produce high integrity assertions, used to drive pretty much anything else. The existing climate-finance industry is a dinosaur by comparison.

Whatever nature-positive asset, program, or contract you are wanting to build… they all require a high-integrity Attestation Engine.

In 2025 we will publish and deploy this Attestation Engine on 10 projects internationally, integrating it in both the creation of ecocredits as well as ecological institutions.
