VISION & MISSION

REGENERATIVE DEVELOPMENT

We enable regenerative development through centers of excellence for vocational training, social entrepreneurship and circular economy. We cultivate climate-neutral lifestyles and transfer the relevant knowledge to our future leaders. Our centers are designed to serve as reference points for sustainable living, where national and international stakeholders can share and expand holistic, transdisciplinary knowledge.


SUSTAINABLE, HOLISTIC LIVING

Our mission is to make sustainable living the norm. To this end, we offer courses in regenerative agriculture, food processing (shelf life, value addition), herbal medicine, natural hygiene, proper waste management, and renewable energy. Our centers provide platforms for all who aspire to live in peace and harmony with their fellow human beings and nature, regardless of ethnicity, gender, age or religion.
