Highlights of the speakers and themes from the February 2024 Summit. The Summit was a collaboration between the Legacy Project, Design School for Regenerating Earth, and Indigenous Environmental Institute at Trent University.

In this short Insight video, philosopher Jonathan Rowson explores needing both unity and multiplicity for the emerging story of Bioregional Earth – how everything is one AND one is everything.

Peace is the foundation of everything. And our human relationships, duties, and responsibilities are guided by the authority of nature. Nature does what it does, and we must live within those rhythms.

Going against Natural Law is like going against life, toward your own demise. We need the best of Indigenous ways of being and knowledge with the best of Western science. Can we find a Third Way forward?

We need two things for a 7-Generation world – one external and one internal. We need generations (as a personal and concrete way to touch time) and we need legacy (to feel into the parts of ourselves that will outlive our body).

Young people will need to navigate a world in need of both social and ecological regeneration. By orienting their knowledge and actions around centering life on the planet, they can find both strength and purpose.
