The Earth Wisdom Approach™

EWA is our unique perspective to achieve Regeneration.

According to our Theory of Change, the more we allow Earth’s Wisdom to flow back into Human Systems by design, the higher the chances to restore our relationship with the planet’s life-supporting systems and become co-evolving participants of Life. In order to best support our Partners through their Regenerative Journey, we design Frameworks & Methodologies that stem from the intersection of Traditional Indigenous Knowledge & Biomimicry.

Designing ‘Earth Wisdom Tools’ for unleashing Regeneration

The Regenerative Journey is complex and multi-dimensional by principle. For this DWE is creating tools to accompany the transformational transition of organizations and to facilitate Teams with the resources needed to unleash Regeneration at every step of their Journey. DWE Earth Wisdom Tools are designed based on our DWE Regen Principles.

  • Based on living and healthy systems, our Regen Potential Assessment allows us to assess an organization’s regenerative potential and apply the Regenerative Valuation Criteria to each project.

  • The Regenerative Roadmap is a guided life-centered co-design process for organizations to develop internal tools for agile decision-making processes and strategic direction through the coming years.

  • A periodic checkup of our nestedness in larger life-supporting systems provides our Partners with a Regen snapshot of their Organizational Metabolism.

  • Aimed to bring our Partners closer to the Wisdom held in each Place and identify the most impactful ways to unleash its regenerative capacities.

  • DWELL∞ Framework is a guiding framework used to bring the conversation of Regeneration to different practical areas of interest referred to as Labs.

  • DWE DAO or DWE DHO is our Web3-based sister Organization created for scaling DWE in a distributed and participative manner, aimed at those looking to further support the emergence of Earth-Centered endeavors with DWE.

  • DWE Board-approved Distinctions are provided to those on the Regenerative Journey when significant milestones in the transition are achieved.

Future and evolution of the Earth Wisdom Approach® & DWE´s Methodological Foundation

The methodology will adapt to the new findings of the current scientific fields, to continuous feedback provided by DWE´s ecosystem, and to advances by methodologies created by colleagues.

A larger level evolution of the methodology will happen when a new scientific higher-level order of understanding reality, complexity, and Life emerges. 

Notes 

* Oneness - All frameworks, principles, valuation systems, metrics, indicators, evidence and tools, without exception, divide and reduce the essence of what is being observed, and tends to close the mind. Life and the creation of Life in its totality goes beyond what humans or any of its technologies are able to sense or fully understand. 

* They are not meant to create a new dogma about Life, but to allow enough space for creativity, mind openness and expansion of what a regenerative design is and can be.
