Programs

The Regenesis Institute for Regenerative Practice’s programs are designed to support regenerative practitioners who feel called to serve as agents for the regeneration of the communities and systems in which they work.

The Regenerative Practitioner Series is an in-depth, five-month course; core sessions are held over Zoom, and the Series culminates with a powerful, three-day Intensive (held either in-person or online, depending on the cohort). Cohorts are organized around the world to support the emergence of place-sourced communities of practice in diverse locations.

The series takes participants on a deep dive into the fundamental shifts in how we think and how we work that underlie a regenerative approach to development of all kinds. 

While anyone who strives to practice regenerative work is a regenerative practitioner in spirit, an important outcome of the series is the creation of a new collaborative foundation from which to engage with one another as thinking partners and “friends in the work.” This shared foundation has enabled the emergence of our vibrant global network of alumni practitioners, which we call The Regenerates.  

Want to learn more about the Regenesis approach? We periodically offer free public seminars to provide an introduction to regenerative practice and and orientation to the global community of practice that we’ve developed through The Regenerative Practitioner Series. We also archive recordings of previous seminars on our Resources page.

The Regenerates community of TRP graduates is supported by the Institute through a variety of in-person and online programs as well as an online platform, The Regenerates Member Portal, that provides cross-network connectivity. TRP alumni also foster strong and supportive relationships with one another as thinking partners, project collaborators, and “friends in the work.” 

The Regenerates member community is growing rapidly, and concentrations of graduates in multiple cities and regions around the globe are approaching critical mass in terms of the potential to shift levels from a community of practice to a “community of influence” capable of organizing for regenerative direct action. At the Institute, our greatest strategic focus is the development of on-the-ground support systems for our member practitioners, while further strengthening the connections between and within this “community of communities.”

The Regenesis School serves as an ongoing developmental resource to alumni of The Regenerative Practitioner Series, who we consider members of The Regenerates global community. 

A common thread that connects many TRP graduates is the sense that as our capacity increases, so do our aspirations to deliver greater and greater levels of value to our communities, teams, and stakeholders. It is from this understanding that we often say the work of growing our capacity to practice regenerative work is a lifelong process. 

We view that process as an unfolding path that is unique to each of us. The aim of The Regenesis School is to support practitioners in charting that ongoing, lifelong learning path for themselves, at a pace that is supportive of their aims, and bolstered by the support of the broader Regenerates community.
