Cyclical Approach
Regenerators honor natural cycles. We recognise that nothing thrives when forced into a state of perpetual productivity, and make conscious space for rest and fallow periods, both in the way we work and in the design of our courses and learning experiences.
Our Business Model
Our business model is based on the values of regeneration. This means that we redistribute capital towards projects that focus on land regeneration and empowering Indigenous voices. We ensure fair conditions for all our contributors and always offer scholarships and a reduced price for students and the unemployed.
