The Regenerative Community Investment Initative^TM

Enabling communities to go beyond sustainability to regeneration

The Initiative process is being developed by the Regenerative Communities Group, a partnership among companies that have experience in bringing regenerative processes into business, land and resource planning and development, and education.

These initiatives bring stakeholders together to grow a community's unique regenerative potential through creation of developmental, place-based economies, educational processes, and land and resource use planning. At the core of this process is a deep understanding of the unique essence of a community and its place—an understanding that is developed, conveyed and continually evolved through a Story of Place^® process.

Regenesis develops a community Story of Place^® that speaks to what a community can become, and how its members can both contribute to and benefit from that future. A community's Story of Place^TM:

is a source of authenticity and integrity for defining a community's unique identity and what it is uniquely able to contribute

unifies and inspires, bridging divides and enabling community members to create their own stories and unique roles

creates/recreates the sense of belonging that makes sustainability real and personal

"Transforming the Built Environment—Asking the right questions"





While analysis is good for control and prediction, story-sensibility is good for understanding meaning and role. "Regenesis helped the community distill the potential for the valley, and was probably one of the very best things that could have happened."
