What is the idea behind this website
Regenerative Cultures is what Extinction Rebellion is aiming to create. Often times we think of regenerative cultures just as a part of regenerating actions. Though it is so much more than that and the idea behind the website is to create a platform where these visions and resources can be shared and the international community can thrive.
Making resources/materials more visible and accessible
An important aspect of the website is to make knowledge and materials of regenerative cultures more accessible than they are so far. Sharing visions and making visible what regenerative cultures can look like
"We have a shared vision of change is the first core value of xr. In order to make it liveable, it is important that we share our visions and make visible where we want to go in the first place.
Creating Connections / Making Communities Stronger
This project will create a connection with all the people around the world who are committed to regenerative cultures and therefore strengthen the community. Stories and personal experiences can be shown and thus the individual in the big picture of the movement becomes more visible.

What are regenerative cultures?

We build Regenerative Cultures to save ourselves from the insanity of a self-destructive civilization. Therefore, we try to reconnect with ourselves, friends, fellow activists, society, and the natural world. Furthermore, we learn inclusivity, mutuality, empathy, and equality anew. We seek regenerative solutions up against any challenge. Regenerative Cultures can be learned on the fly.

Regenerative Cultures care for the planet and they care for life, aware that this is the most effective way to create a thriving future for all of humanity. More than being a network of activists, we seek to find ways of being and doing that positive change. Regenerative Cultures are about relationships. Our relationships with our personal histories, and our relationships with what we struggle against. Our relationships with other persons, and our relationships as a group. That also means we struggle with our toxic habits and evolve into the unknown. It is almost a psychotherapeutic process in which we need to grow together, then spread it from our movement into society. Our 3rd Principle says that regenerative human cultures stay healthy and resilient when facing a crisis. In addition, Regenerative Cultures are adaptable to changing circumstances. We don't know what they will look like because we are the first who creates them as we do. We are brave to try. Every day anew.
