ECOSYSTEM
We believe in weaving webs of relationality and bringing together diverse voices within our shared ecosystem. Each collective has a unique expression that enriches the whole. Delve into the various contributors that comprise our ecosystem below.
Culture Hack Labs
CHL supports organizations, social movements, and activists to create cultural interventions for narrative-led systems change. Our mission is to change the cultural narratives that create and justify ecological breakdown, extraction, and inequality. We believe that power rests on the ability to harness and control language; and that humans make sense of their world through stories. CHL amplifies the voices of those who are protecting life, weaving webs of solidarity, and defending that which is sacred.
Transition Resource Circle
TRC is an assemblage of activists, writers, cosmologists, researchers, and others focused on addressing the root causes of our meta-crisis. We are focused on building transition pathways to guide us through the meta-crisis to adjacent possible futures that serve Life. We work with/in/through philanthropy to alchemize and liberate capital to usher in post capitalist realities through practices rooted in liberatory and post-anthropocentric values such as solidarity, interbeing, relationality, reciprocity, and animism.
Tierra Vailente
This 88-acre commons nestled between Rio Chachagua and Volcán Arenal in Costa Rica is home to the Center for Applied Cultural Transition. We offer experiences at the intersection of the political, spiritual, and ecological, all through an animist lens. We are curating these containers to decolonize the conditioning of the dominant system and to be in deeper service to our collective potential. In addition to the center is a regenerative farm, emerging residential community, and mutual-aid network.
