Regenerative society is emerging, amidst the current permacrisis. How do we activate positive change? How do we re-imagine a human, planet-centred - not profitcentred - society? This talk will: share tales of hope; analyse what blocks regenerative solutions; describe the emerging “new story” of a free, equal, mutual and regenerative society, drawing on Rudolf Steiner’s alternative to both Marx and ‘the market; and identify inspiring growing points for regenerating culture, politics, business and our connection with nature.
