Low Saxony, Germany
Hof Luna is the educational center we started our learning journey at. One year we lived there, tending their garden, living in community and learning all about permaculture!
This place is real. Rooted in generational resistance.
and many more!
Our hearts are beating for the people fully committed, on the ground, in the fields, in the communities, restoring health and building new paradigms with their feet on the ground. Hundreds of people and places are waiting to be displayed by the upcoming Hope Hub Network, coming soon!
With the emerging Hope Hub network, we want to support transformative places, regenerative projects and practicioners.
It's thyme wants to bring together funders, foundations, the corporate world, educational institutions and the people on the ground.
The appreciation and resources available to the people on the ground often do not reflect the high value they bring to the world.
We want to change that!
What makes a place a Hope Hub
Regenerative Structures
The Hope Hub operates on community-based ownership and governance models with zero-pollution systems, where circular and sustainable living, producing and working can be experienced.
It builds community locally and brings together the neighbourhood with regional and international individuals, organisations, educational institutions, pivate and public stakeholders working towards sustainable change, allowing for cross-sectoral and interdisciplinary actions and learning.
The core team is experienced in regenerative ways of leading. Awareness of systemic oppressive patterns and a culture of empathy, collaboration, trust and self-responsibility is key to make a place a Hope Hub.
Glocal Collaboration & Connection
Regenerative Leadership
A healing Sanctuary
The culture and physical structures spark creativity and invite for a relaxing atmosphere to breath out and find connection and grounding in times of uncertainty.
Collaborating educational institutions find a home here to learn, research and test. Generated knowledge and stories are spread through digital storytelling and PR contributing to solution journalism that builds hope, joy and momentum!
Education & Storytelling
It highlights the beauty of the regional resources, products and culture, strengthens and connects local economic actors and brings attention to the region as a pioneer in regenerative development.
Regional Localisation and Empowerment
based on a 5-year experiential research journey of what it takes to build bottom-up systemic change
Regenerative leadership ensures a caring and collaborative culture from which everything else ermeges. It empowers people through empathy, trust, a sense of autonomy and belonging. It is the capability to take self-responsibility, communicate clearly and to take decisions based on mindful observation and consideration of the systemic impact.
The Network Vision
We connect Hope Hub leaders with each other as well as with individuals looking to join a Hope Hub as long- or short term residents, supporters, social entrepreneurs, regenerative experts, educational leads or volunteers.
How? Online through our Hope Hub portfolio on our website and a rotating community manager moderating community calls.
Offline through Hope Hub Festivaaaaaaaaals and organized Events.
Community Building for more Hope Hubs
Joyful joined Communication & PR
Share your story through diverse channels and potentially at our Hope Hub Festivals and benefit from filmmakers and storytellers in the network. We want to bring the vision and values of our Hope Hubs into the world, inviting more people to join and support the making of a truly democratic and joyful future. Also: more visibility will lead to more funding!
Ressource Sharing & Community Support
Exchange ressources, experience, knowledge and lessons with others and practice circular money flow. With more funding coming into the network fund, the more we have to democratically see where it is needed the most.
We are thinking of trust-based membership contributions.
Claim your space in a thriving community
Join a community of hands-on people that are fully committed for joyful system change and support each other in the journey. With a sense of adventure we co-create a global culture of deep care, fair resource exchange, international educational formats and all kinds of events! This living network is what we make of it!
