Empowering Indigenous & Women-Led Solutions for People and Planet
A film, a movement, and a call to action—uniting businesses, scientists, artists, Indigenous and global leaders to protect what matters most.
MISSION:
Rooted in ancient wisdom. Guided by global goals.
The Regeneration Generation Initiative, a project of the nonprofit Shakti Regeneration Institute (501(c)(3)), regenerates ecosystems by supporting the people who protect them: Indigenous communities, women, and frontline change-makers.
We unite storytelling, science, and social action—from the Amazon to the United Nations—to reimagine our collective future.
