TOGETher we are building a global awakening WITH life

The good news is this awakening is well underway and accelerating. The Generosity Fund is supporting people around the world with the inspiration, capacity building and community needed to transform societal systems so that businesses, communities, farms, schools, governments, and entire economies align with life, work with life, and are ultimately teeming with life. 
 
We believe that the resources needed to accomplish this transition must be inclusive and accessible to evoke an awakening of the masses, not limited to the minority few.

I completed Capital Institute’s ‘Introduction to Regenerative Economics’ as part of the 2022 cohort. Despite my existing involvement in regenerative finance, I was blown away by John and the team’s ability to tell the story of economics and finance differently and to introduce me to a whole host of extraordinary people playing their part to change the underlying metaphors and processes of the economy. I truly believe that the more people understand this way of viewing the economic world and its relationship with nature, the more likely we are to be able to change that world for the better. My wife Murielle and I are delighted to be playing a small part in providing scholarships and thus ensuring that students’ means are no barrier to them benefiting from the inspiration that this course provides.

WHAT GENEROSITY FUND RECIPIENTS ARE SAYING

"A truly rich course as rich as life can be. Despite having familiarity with a lot of concepts in this course, the impact was substantial for me, as it made several puzzle pieces fall together, and as a result, it fundamentally changed my view on the world and on life. And this is just the start. I see it for now as a study about life that one can enjoy for life. Together with the warm community I hope to continue learning and spread word and deed."
Alex Pielaet
"First of all, I want to acknowledge Capital Institute's scholarship. It provided a seat at the economic discussion table for the first time in a long time of searching for professional development. Capital Institute's introduction to the regenerative economy course offered an alternative discussion of how and why we should shapeshift our current economic mindset and value. Shapeshifting helps us subjectively and objectively valuate the integration and interdependence of people-to-people and humanity-to-nature."
Katharhy F
"This is one of the best designed courses I have attended in the past years. John and his guest speakers walk their talk. The combination of lectures, dialogues and community interaction makes for a very enriching experience, both for thinkers and practitioners of regenerative economics. The quality of discussion amongst participants is extremely high and informative."
Helen Liu
“Perhaps it would be fair to future participants to add a disclaimer to the course description: Might evoke feelings of unity, resonance, belonging, gratitude, hope, and provoke committed action, even over Zoom”
Irina Lahtadire
"It honestly blew our doors off. I can’t thank you enough for the inclusion. I will never see the world, or my role in it, the same way again. The course mechanics, the content, the quality of speakers…. Job well done Capital Institute team!!"

The Introduction to Regenerative Economics Course has profoundly impacted my life on all levels. The revelation of the reasons for the deep misalignment of the economic and financial models embedded in every aspect of our society and the living world has allowed me to resolve long standing disquiet and confusion. It has provided me with an intense clarity that will enable me to navigate a new path for myself, my family and the communities I work among. I still have much to unlearn and learn, but I’m already waltzing down the path of the regenerative mindset finding more and more people wanting to dance along.

I really enjoyed the course, and was blessed to be one of the fortunate who had some sponsorship. The course is engaging, intense, holistic in approach, and brings in some of the foremost thought leaders of our times, to deliver a very comprehensive worldview. Highly recommended!
Roberto Sciffo
We are grounded in place and in relation to others. The 8 principles of regenerative economic and the many combinations go further than any model or buzz word. The world is not working for the many and we need to come together across institutions and generations to make a new set of systems that hold together people and planet. The rich material, community and discovery dialogues will continue to nourish our thinking and doing for a long time. I highly recommended this course for executive and board teams and all decision makers.
Karen Rivoire
Capital Institute’s course Introduction to Regenerative Economics is truly a paradigm-shifting experience. I finish these eight weeks with a renewed imperative to realign the focus of my work, collaboration and organizational design with the force of regeneration present in the natural world. Thank you for the incredible resources and generous library of material that will continue to assist me in strengthening the way I communicate to others about these concepts. I now feel more capable to make strategic and meaningful shifts towards being part of the solution to the current policrisis.
