Root-level Reform & Collaborative Planning

Generating new capacity for cross-cultural collaboration within a regenerative paradigm

Living Systems Advising

Collaborative Planning and Reconciling Ways of Knowing

So a binocular perspective between Western regenerative and Indigenous kincentric systems emerges in service of healing, reconciliation, and thriving life

inspired by Johnnie Freeland

Who We Are

As a non-Indigenous organization dedicated to allyship and reconciliation, we help non-Indigenous entities engage in systemic transformation and advance collaboration across knowledge systems (typically partnering with Indigenous professionals). We provide pathways for organizations to center/honor Indigenous perspectives and realign with kincentric worldviews without misappropriating Indigenous knowledges. This positions communities to lead collaborative efforts without the added burden of transforming colonial systems, and non-Indigenous organizations are better situated to provide meaningful contributions to people and the planet.

What We Do

Living Systems Advising/Guidance

Assist non-Indigenous organizations in developing their unique gifts and approaches within regenerative paradigms/kincentric worldviews 

Collaborative Planning and Reconciling Ways of Knowing

Support collaborative efforts across non-Indigenous and Indigenous knowledge systems and communities

Our Offerings

  • Provide practical frameworks and associated approaches to allow organizations to examine, reevaluate, and upgrade fundamental paradigms and associated structures, practices, and policies so they can develop (or refine) their own authentic expression of an ecological worldview, living systems thinking, or regenerative approach based on their unique gifts and offerings

  • Help define (or refine) an organization’s vision and high-level direction and develop associated plans, projects, and policies (ie. setting goals, defining strategies, aligning resources, and outlining actions) to enable greater changes, desired outcomes, and long-term success

  • Ensuring that all organizational strategies, initiatives, and activities are aligned with high-level commitments/beliefs and creating pathways for improvement to integrate commitments and values into core operations (could include creating evaluation and assessment programs to measure progress and assess if offerings are truly value-adding to people and the planet)

  • Defining, organizing, and outlining strategies needed to achieve specific project goals in a way that is aligned with the organization’s unique gifts, offerings, and commitments (could include identifying project objectives, creating timelines, allocating resources, developing relationships, and managing risks)

  • Facilitating ethical and reciprocal collaboration between non-Indigenous and Indigenous knowledge systems and communities by developing effective methodologies, approaches, and frameworks, creating spaces for dialogue, mutual learning, and reconciling diverse perspectives and ways of knowing

  • Providing training programs, workshops, resources, and other knowledge-sharing opportunities on various topics within the two focus areas (ie. examination of eurocentric and kin-centric paradigms, promotion of cultural competencies, intergovernmental planning, ethical engagement, and respectful interactions with Indigenous peoples and knowledge systems)
