True wealth is found in the
well-being of the web of life
We stand before the challenge of regenerating the biological and social systems of our planet, but also before the great possibility of well-being, abundance and justice for all forms of life.
Regenerative development brings together a set of principles to transform the relationship of human beings with the places where they live and interact, and thus restore the balance of ecosystems.
Development is not about financial wealth but about the ability to collaborate with a living and dynamic planet to generate physical and emotional sustenance for all forms of life.
True wealth is found in the well-being of the web of life.
At Regenerative Costa Rica we weave the conditions that enable the transition towards a regenerative development model.
The political-economic design in which we live is offensive against nature and ignores that the potential of human beings derives entirely from the well-being of the web of life.
However, there is a different path. One in which we design as part of nature, doing what life does best: creating conditions for more life to thrive.
We believe that our country has the potential to be an example to the world that demonstrates that abundance, well-being and justice are possible when we act once again as part of the web of life.
