Info on GEN and GDF:
Global Diversity Foundation nurtures and supports environmental changemakers who are working across boundaries and differences to find solutions to complex challenges. With over twenty years of experience in implementing programmes that empower communities and regenerate biocultural diversity, we work with changemakers to create flourishing communities and environments around the world.
We gather a multidisciplinary team of experts and facilitators, including activists, anthropologists, artists, biologists, community organisers, economists, farmers, healers, storytellers and strategists, who work together to activate the power and potential of those
who are poised to make change.
Through our community, Global Environments Network, we connect more than 600 leaders who are operating at the frontlines of systemic change. We mentor, support and resource them to make their visions a reality.
We incubate the most promising ideas through intensive, personalised and embedded support.
We generate and disseminate knowledge for change, such as case studies, lessons learned or toolkits, that promote the replication of successful practices and ideas.
Our efforts result in stories of transformation and practical experiences of real alternatives to the status quo.
Our approach tackles complexity with courage to ensure the solutions we catalyse are durable and embedded in local communities.
