Resilient Communities Heal the Planet, Securing the Future for All Life on Earth

Resilience isn't just a personal quality - it's all about relationships. To build resilience together, we must network ourselves with each other, with the community of life, with the lands and waters, and with the Earth itself.

Six years ago, we had a massive Global Earth Repair Conference, where we taught and discussed and made plans to increase these relationships. Three years after that, we had an even bigger gathering online. There have been many things mentioned at each of these gatherings, but here we have assembled a few of the choice items from 2021 and 2022 into this inspiring piece. Hopefully it galvanizes you to connect to your local living network and increase the connections around you to this beautiful world. It's in connection that we forge the bonds of Love, and Love is much more powerful than fear as a motivator for change.

This video features some voices that have helped us along the way - leading lights in local and global ecological restoration and climate healing. John D. Liu, Walter Jehne, Vandana Shiva, Jeannette Armstrong and Paul (Chiyokten) Wagner, in this case. We've attempted to encapsulate just a bit of their wisdom here - we are never separate from nature or the communities within it. We are absolutely and fully embedded in living systems, and the path to regeneration is forged through reconnecting and reciprocating with, as well as reconnecting to, those systems.

This also doubles as an open invitation to the Global Earth Repair Convergence, which we hope to host in 2026, where these ideas will be more fine-tuned and consolidated into globally decentralized local and regional organizations that can apply the work henceforth.
