Festival Opening: A Regenerative Story Circle (Online)

​The Re:Generation Collective Festival 2026 opens with a Story Circle, a format rooted in indigenous council traditions and the practice of deep listening.

​Rather than a traditional panel, four carefully curated voices speak from lived experience at the threshold between what is ending and what wants to begin.

​The Two Questions
Every voice responds to the same two questions:

​"What are you composting?" - What are you releasing: a habit, a system, a grief, a way of seeing that no longer serves life?

​"What are you growing?" - What are you tending: a practice, a vision, a relationship, a seed you believe in?

​The Four Voices

​The Roots - Indigenous / Traditional Knowledge
The Trunk - Institutional / UN System
The Canopy - Youth / Next Generation
The Mycelium - Practitioner / Community Weaver
