Through collaboration, knowledge sharing, and project acceleration, our group aims to create a framework for future cities that supports an advanced ecological civilization.\n\nOur civilization stands at a pivotal point as technology, climate disruption, health crises and social tensions transform society in unpredictable ways. Incremental change cannot address such systemic global risks. We urgently need a fundamental redesign of the societal paradigms that govern our institutions and way of life. The time has come to collectively dream, learn, connect and forge the systemic shifts humanity needs to thrive. This gathering offers a space to create - not tweak - operating frameworks attuned to people and planet over profits. For the future wellbeing of all life on Earth.\n\nWe will be facilitating the event as a combination of Ephemeral Group Process, Mastermind and Hackathon.\n- Integrating physical infrastructure and digital technologies\n- Creating closed-loop systems for energy, food, waste, water, resources etc.\n- Designing for disaster resilience, ecosystem restoration, and long-term sustainability\n- Exploring new models of governance, economics, social services, transportation etc.\n- Utilizing advanced simulation software to test different scenarios\n\n\nThe core team of contributors consists of scientists, engineers, architects, entrepreneurs, and other leaders spanning fields like renewable energy, agriculture, technology, design, Artificial Intelligence, policy, finance and more. The conceptual framework developed would serve as a foundation for building real-world sustainable cities.\n\nSome participants stay the whole time, some come and go, and some never come, but participate online. There is learning and education, and everyone is contributing/working toward a common goal creating a solid feeling of community and camaraderie.\n\nResidents will be provided with transportation, accommodation, three delicious meals a day and plenty of intellectual and social stimulation. Our team is putting special emphasis on community building and coherence. Residents will also have time in their schedule to keep up on remote work. Our residents will be from all over the world. While we realize that not everyone can come to the United States we will be as inclusive as possible. Our principles are to create systems that help all of humanity and life on Earth.\n\nWe are collaborating with existing projects and organizations including: \n- The Venus Project Evolution\n- HubTropolis\n- The Auravana Project\n- Earthwise Center\n- HyphaDAO\n- Threefold Internet Tech.\n- Blue Dot Project \n- New Earth Developments\n- Nested Ventures\n- Goodly Labs\n- Ecorestoration Alliance\n- RegenEarth Studio\n- The AI Objectives Institute\n- Shala\n- REGENiTECH\n- HackHumanity\n- RegenWorld \n\nOur experiment will not only include digital and social technologies but also combine them with physical infrastructure.\n\n We are inviting attendees from all systems including, but not limited to:\n- Urban Planning and Architecture\n- Renewable Energy and Engineering\n- Water Management\n- Food Systems and Regenerative Agriculture\n- Resource Management, Recycling, and Manufacturing\n- Transportation and Mobility\n- AI, Robotics, and Smart City Solutions\n- Blockchain Technology, and Digital Self-Governance\n- Circular Economics, Regenerative Finance, and Legal  \n- Health, Education, and Social Services\n- Environmental Science, Climate Resilience and -Ecosystem restoration\n- Indigenous Wisdom, Art, Culture, and Community Builders\n-Innovation, Polymaths, Sensemakers\n\nOur month long event  incorporates diverse activities for participants, including:\n- Seminars and lectures delivered by experts\n- Interactive question and answer sessions where attendees can engage with presenters\n- Independent work time for participants to process concepts or collaborate\n- Small working groups dedicated to developing standards and documentation\n- Intimate discussion sessions in smaller groups to facilitate deeper dialogues\n- Large-scale collaborative working sessions bringing all participants together\n- Other impactful hands-on engagements and exercises\n\nBoth scheduled sessions on the agenda and spontaneous activities emerge throughout the event. The varied formats provide structured learning while making space for organic collaboration, connection, and insights to arise.\n", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}}
