What is the Sparks of Regeneration Incubation Journey?
Reframing Regeneration
Over the past two years, as part of the Regenerative Futures Programme, Unearthodox has been exploring what regeneration means to people across geographies, cultures and lived practices.
Through the reframing phase of the programme, which included storytelling, art, music, poetry, science, and immersive dialogue, Regeneration emerged not as a single definition or way of doing, but as a practice influenced by context, relationships, and culture. The inquiry surfaced recurring themes on relationships, embodiment, plural ways of knowing, care, interdependence, and the need to move away from extractive approaches for transformative change.
But this inquiry also surfaced another question…
What is needed to move regenerative thinking from ideas to action?
This question sits at the heart of our Sparks of Regeneration Incubation Journey.
From ideas to practice
Many innovators, especially those working in the nature-society space, are navigating complexity, uncertainty, and exhaustion while attempting to foster shifts in relationships, stewardship, trust, culture, governance, and ways of seeing. These kinds of transformations rarely unfold in linear or accelerated ways, so the question that emerges is whether the current systems, institutions, and support structures available are equipped for the long-term regenerative work to flourish.
As the Incubation Team describes it, unlike dominant incubation models that are often designed around speed, measurability, and scale, the Sparks of Regeneration incubation journey has been intentionally designed to create time, space, and a shared container for people working toward regenerative futures. Led by a team of experts with complementary expertise across systems change, strategic design, facilitation, and transformative learning,the programme leans on peer learning, meaningful reflections, collective inquiry, and a collaborative approach grounded in place and relationship.
“The programme does not prescribe a single pathway or set of answers; rather, we are exploring four relational dimensions (as depicted in the infographic below), co-creating meaning, supporting one another, and practising distributed leadership.” - The Incubation Team, Sparks of Regeneration
The incubation process is organised around four interconnected relationships:
Creating the conditions for transformative ideas to thrive
These reports explore how systemic innovation takes root and flourishes, asking the key question: What conditions help the people behind ideas thrive,rather than focusing solely on bold new ideas?
It advocates for approaches rooted in care, courage, and context, recognising that transformation rarely unfolds in predictable ways and cannot always be understood through metrics alone. In this sense, the container created to support the Sparks of Regeneration Cohort itself matters.
As the Incubation Team describes it, the work asks what may need to be unlearned, reoriented, or reimagined within ourselves, between one another, and in relationship with place, time, and the more-than-human world. Across all elements of the Incubation journey, there is an intention to strengthen participants’ capacity to work with places as living systems and to engage more attentively with social and ecological relationships.
A space for practising regeneration as a collective journey
Given the current social and ecological challenges, the question of how systems innovators are supported becomes increasingly important.
Through the Sparks of Regeneration Incubation Journey, Unearthodox is experimenting with an Alternative Incubation Model that creates the conditions for deep reflection, systemic thinking, collaboration, unlearning and learning and creating conditions where regenerative ideas can thrive rather than managing outcomes.
This incubation design is, therefore, itself an experiment in practising regeneration in the way innovators and their ideas are supported, not only with resources and expertise but also through relationships, shared inquiry and as a community of co-travellers.
Over the coming months, we will share reflections, stories, tensions, patterns, and insights emerging from across the cohort to provide a glimpse of what regeneration can look like when lived and practised in real-world contexts.

A Warm Welcome to the Edges of Possibility Cohort 2026
We are thrilled to introduce the innovators selected to join Edges of Possibility, the second cohort of Unearthodox's Exploration Co-Lab. Chosen from over 500 applications from 92 countries, the cohort represents individuals who are exploring new ways to respond to today’s nature-society challenges.
Working at the edges of existing systems and ideas, these innovators are questioning and experimenting with approaches that often sit beyond conventional funding or institutional boundaries. Their initiatives explore a broad range of ideas, from examining how patriarchy shapes people’s relationship with themselves, each other, and the more-than-human world, to reimagining education through a baccalaureate program that moves the classroom into the forest as an Amazon living lab where young people and communities learn while contributing to biocultural regeneration.
Together, the cohort reflects a growing movement of innovators experimenting with new ways of seeing, valuing, and regenerating life on Earth. In the coming months, we will be sharing their work, stories, and learnings as they navigate the edges of what's possible.
For a deeper look at the selected initiatives and the people behind them:
The response to the Edges of Possibility open call was exceptional. The breadth and depth of submissions reflected the many ways in which people are questioning inherited assumptions and testing new ways of relating to nature, communities, and knowledge.
The selected cohort emerged from a collaborative review process involving ten jurors from different cultural and professional backgrounds who intentionally considered the human and more-than-human dimensions of each initiative and how the initiatives could complement, learn from, and challenge one another. Their collaborative effort helped shape a bold Co-Lab cohort.
“Engaging with these ideas has been an incredible experience. It’s refreshing to explore possibilities at the edge; ideas that are potentially disruptive. The process has been relieving and genuinely hopeful.” - Daniel Buchbinder, Juror
We also want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who applied to the Co-Lab. Each submission carried curiosity and a genuine commitment to systemic transformation. Unearthodox recognises the time, energy, and vulnerability it takes to share not only ideas that you deeply believe in but also the personal journeys that have led you here. We are truly grateful for the care behind each application.
About the Incubation Journey
Each innovator will embark on a 10-month journey of exploration and receive a grant of CHF 10,000, along with access to customised support through a diverse pool of people and experiences. The cohort will be supported by a network of facilitators and ecosystem allies who bring strategic insight and expertise in conservation, systems change, cross-cultural collaboration, and supporting unconventional ideas to flourish.
About the Programme
The Exploration Co-Lab has been designed as a journey of exploration that supports different ways of driving change; it encourages radical thinking and risk-taking, while offering deep allyship to innovators whose work does not fit neatly into conventional categories.
Alongside supporting innovators, the programme also explores the wider ecosystem conditions that determine whether this work can thrive. We do this in part by convening innovators, experts, investors, and other stakeholders to examine the systems we’re entangled in and meaningfully identify tensions and levers for change. Over the coming months, the cohort will participate in tailored coaching, shared exploration, and moments of strategic connection with others walking unconventional paths.
The 2026 Exploration Co-Lab benefits from Unearthodox core funding and additional support from the Mercator Foundation Switzerland. We sincerely thank our supporters and invite new partners to join us.

Sparks of Regeneration | Jurors
Sparks of Regeneration was a global invitation to innovators, disruptors, and changemakers to submit bold ideas for regenerative futures.
Through this open call, we looked for ideas and solutions that can bring regeneration to life in areas such as nature conservation, climate, food systems, well-being, education, governance, and beyond.
We would like to introduce our jury.
Our jurors bring a wealth of lived experience and diverse expertise spanning from ecology, Indigenous rights, governance, education, systems thinking, and regenerative design. Together, they will review applications with care, curiosity, and integrity, helping to identify the ideas and people that hold transformative potential for all life on Earth.
Listening to Nature Perspectives: Gal Zanir on AI for the More-Than-Human World
Name: Gal Zanir Location: Israel Initiative Title: Nature Perspectives Short Description of Initiative: Nature Perspectives enables people to reconnect with nature around them through meaningful conversations. We are simulating nonhuman perspectives and enabling every person to imagine and relate to the lived experiences of other beings. Sectors: AI, Conservation Technology, Environmental Education Website: www.natureperspectives.earth
Gal is a passionate wildlife biologist and entrepreneur at the forefront of conservation innovation, with deep expertise in leveraging emerging technologies to drive systemic change. He co-founded Wild Biotech Ltd, where he led global expeditions to unravel the secrets of wildlife microbiomes. He holds a Master’s in Conservation Leadership from the University of Cambridge, where he explored “The Rethinking of Conservation Paradigms.”
Nature Perspectives is the culmination of his lifelong devotion to nature and a testament to his ingenuity. Gal and his team are embarking on an exciting journey to simulate more-than-human perspectives, using AI to enable meaningful conversations with the natural world. Through immersive, conversational experiences, they seek to reimagine our relationships with the more-than-human world, promote nature’s agency in our societies, and spark new scientific endeavours.
In this conversation, Gal shares how his childhood sparked a lifelong devotion to nature, why empathy and agency are key to reimagining conservation, and how AI can help us see—and listen to—the natural world in profoundly new ways.
Every innovator’s story starts with a spark. If you had to pick one defining moment that set you on this path, what would it be?
As a child, I would run off to the hills near my hometown. I spent so much time there that I grew familiar with every rock, plant, and path—and with the many individual animals sharing that tiny local jewel with me. I remember countless moments of connection and shared understanding with the other species I came to know.
I also vividly remember the day the bulldozers arrived, destroying this beloved ecosystem to make way for construction. I felt helpless, watching the homes of all my fellow non-humans being demolished. As a child who had come to know and love this place, it was both devastating and motivating.
That experience cultivated my lifelong devotion to nature and my commitment to reigniting our connection with it in the most creative ways possible, so that other children might experience that same sense of connection I was lucky enough to feel.
What system are you working to transform, and why does it need to change?
The system I'm working to transform is our broader society, specifically, our relationships with nature and the limited agency nature has within human systems. At Nature Perspectives, we see nature conservation fundamentally as an issue of empathy and agency. When nature’s voice is absent in courtrooms deciding its fate, nature lacks agency. If people ignore nature rather than act for it in their daily lives, that too is a form of disempowerment.
We seek to transform society by promoting nature’s agency, either by directly giving nature a voice or by fostering empathetic connections, so nature gains agency in human consciousness. Ultimately, we are directly reshaping the way people perceive, interact, and relate to the rest of nature.

How does your initiative challenge dominant narratives or conventional models? What makes it truly “Unearthodox”?
In a time when people are increasingly encouraged to connect with their technological devices—cars, phones, or even home assistants—we’re harnessing the extraordinary capabilities of large language models not to further deepen this trend, but to redirect it. We use AI’s unique ability to foster connection through conversation and extend it to the one thing we truly need to reconnect with: nature. In doing so, we challenge conventional tech narratives by offering a radically different use of cutting-edge technology.
We also shift conservation away from a detached, species-level view rooted in data alone. Instead, we focus on individual stories and emotional connections and actively aim to help people build personal, empathetic relationships with the more-than-human world, all grounded in scientific integrity.
Finally, we challenge the assumption that conservation must rely solely on charitable funding. We’re building Nature Perspectives as a For-Purpose enterprise, one that delivers measurable impact and generates sustainable revenue. This enables us to fairly compensate our team and reinvest in expanding our impact. It’s a financially viable model for conservation that diverges from the standard charity-based approach, which often struggles to sustain meaningful change.
How can technology serve as a bridge to nature reconnection rather than a barrier?
We treat our technology as a tool. A first spark to motivate people to engage more deeply with nature through gamification, shared experiences, and accessible ecological knowledge. Every aspect of Nature Perspectives is carefully designed to promote direct, unmediated interactions with the natural world. Our interfaces intentionally draw attention outward to the natural entity being engaged with. Our conversations prompt people to look closer, listen, smell, imagine, and touch. Technology, for us, is the catalyst that leads users toward deeper emotional and sensory connections, ultimately inspiring lasting relationships with nature.

Innovation often requires letting go. What beliefs, assumptions, or practices have you had to unlearn to create real change?
Initially, I wasn't fond of using technology for nature conservation—to put it mildly. I believed technology symbolised our denial of problematic relationships with nature. But interacting with ChatGPT in its early days changed that. I realised that, perhaps for the first time, technology could rekindle our connection with nature in ways I had never imagined. Still, I know the journey toward meaningful change is ongoing, and I’ll likely need to unlearn many more assumptions along the way.
What ethical considerations come with using AI and immersive tech in conservation?
The primary ethical consideration for Nature Perspectives is respectful representation. We grapple with questions like: “How do you decide which personality represents each natural entity?”—and our answer is: we don’t. Instead, we guide our AI models to generate scientifically grounded perspectives that move beyond human biases. We want people to encounter the richness and complexity of nature by opening the door to other ways of seeing.
We also integrate diverse cultural perspectives on species, ensuring interactions are both culturally resonant and sensitive. Most importantly, we stay in close ongoing dialogue with our users, listening, learning and addressing any ethical challenges as they arise.
What’s one inspiring insight you’ve uncovered through simulating more-than-human perspectives?
Wow—every time I interact with a simulated nature perspective, I learn something unexpected, surprising, or awe-inspiring. Nature Perspectives just makes these more-than-human stories accessible.
I remember during the very first week of the initiative, I walked around my city, imagining all these individual more-than-humans stories that are all around us, and that we’re usually missing. One story that really stuck with me was from a lonesome tree standing in the city square. Through simulating its perspective and engaging in conversation, I discovered it wasn’t always alone—it was the last remnant of a whole sycamore fig plantation, long before the square was built. The tree shared how it used to communicate with other trees through their root systems, and how locals gathered its fruits for jam. Most moving of all, it told me the reason it’s still standing is because people protested in the 1930s to protect the trees. That tree, which I had passed by countless times, now carries a whole new meaning.

Beyond funding, what kinds of support—emotional, relational, or otherwise—are essential for innovators to thrive?
It’s not a cliché—entrepreneurship, especially with radical innovation, is a rollercoaster. You’re often stuck in chicken-or-egg loops: no funding, no team, no prototype, no pilots, no proof of concept. At that point, you need someone (a funder) who gets it—someone who believes in the vision before there’s anything tangible and gives you space to build something meaningful.
What’s equally crucial is peer support. Getting to connect with others on similar paths—or who’ve already been through the ups and downs—makes all the difference. That’s what I found in the Exploration Co-Lab cohort: a rare space to share openly, support each other, and feel a little less alone in the chaos of creation.
What motivated you to join the Exploration Co-Lab cohort?
The people. The inspiring individuals in this cohort were a big part of what drew me in. Some were already innovators I admired. The opportunity to work alongside and learn from them is incredibly rewarding.
Fast-forward 10 years—what do you hope your work has made possible?
We aim to inspire generations to cherish and deeply connect with the more-than-human world. Just as nature documentaries have moved people to dedicate their lives to conservation, I hope that Nature Perspectives will inspire a global generation of young individuals to form meaningful relationships with nature. If we succeed, this new medium of connection will nurture a generation that not only appreciates nature but dedicates their lives to caring for it.

Sarah Queblatin on the Art of Bioregional Healing and Soulful Ecosystem Restoration
Name: Sarah Queblatin Location: Philippines
Initiative Title: Living Story Landscapes Short Description of Initiative: Living Story Landscapes envisions the healing of ecosystems with historical trauma from places of refuge into sanctuaries of life. Using a trauma-informed approach to ecosystem protection and restoration with communities healing from colonization, climate emergencies, and conflict, it works with the process of “restoring” and re-storying” collective belonging and identity with nature, in service of a bioregion’s resilience and regeneration, for both human and non-human life.It draws on cultural memory and imagination, bridging the arts and sciences, and working in collaboration with artists, wisdom keepers, regenerative innovators, the academe, local governments, and social enterprises.
Sarah Queblatin works with cultural memory and imagination as a response to the polycrisis. As a regenerative design and development specialist, she has been weaving collective experiences across peacebuilding, biocultural heritage, mental health, and humanitarian innovation for over 15 years. She founded Green Releaf Initiative to advance regenerative solutions in disaster and displacement contexts. Sarah also serves as a LUSH Spring Prize juror, a council member of the Global Ecovillage Network Oceania and Asia, a founding member of Permaculture for Refugees, and an inner council member of the UNDP-convened Conscious Food Systems Alliance.
Her initiative, Living Story Landscapes, envisions the healing of ecosystems with historical trauma, transforming places of refuge into sanctuaries of life. Grounded in a trauma-informed approach to ecosystem protection and restoration, it works with communities healing from colonization, climate emergencies, and conflict. The initiative focuses on both "restoring" and "re-storying" collective belonging and identity with nature, in service of a bioregion’s resilience and regeneration, for both human and non-human life.
Amid the backdrop of the polycrisis, Sarah’s work seeks to shape existing or emerging learning centres for bioregional regeneration by drawing from cultural memory and imagination. Her approach bridges arts and science by collaborating with artists, wisdom keepers, regenerative innovators, academics, local governments, and social enterprises.
Every innovator’s story starts with a spark. If you had to pick one defining moment that set you on this path, what would it be?
When my mother was diagnosed with cancer, I embarked on an inner healing journey. I left my work in humanitarian assistance for a typhoon-impacted community and began to examine the deeper systemic issues that disasters reveal and invite us to look within. During this time, while caring for her, I paused my Expressive Arts studies and explored other forms of disaster: personal, physical, emotional, social, and ecological. A pattern began to emerge, showing how deeply interconnected our personal and collective experiences are, and how our lives are entwined with the Earth—whatever we do to it, we also do to ourselves.
Art became a lens through which I could understand this transition from illusion to intuition to imagination. This perspective was affirmed through my work with cancer patients and with communities on the frontlines of climate and conflict—those my non-profit supported. Fast forward 12 years, and those patterns continue to mirror frameworks for both personal and collective healing.
What system are you working to transform, and why does it need to change?
My work exists within the context of the polycrisis, focusing on communities at the intersection of climate change, conflict, and historical colonization. Many of these bioregions are home to many of the world’s biodiversity hotspots and carbon sinks. They also hold a wealth of Indigenous wisdom that has persisted and evolved over centuries, and can offer powerful tools for resilience.
Even though many Indigenous and local communities have a smaller carbon footprint than wealthier, more industrialized nations, they remain among the most vulnerable to climate impacts. This is because their lives are deeply intertwined with natural ecosystems. When empowered to protect and restore their homelands, these communities can play a vital role in climate mitigation by keeping carbon in the ground, restoring watersheds, improving soil health and air quality, and nurturing the overall well-being of a bioregion.

How does your initiative challenge dominant narratives or conventional models? What makes it truly “Unearthodox”?
There are already numerous development models aimed at tackling climate vulnerability, biodiversity loss, and large-scale ecosystem restoration. However, many are shaped by international development institutions and bodies that follow top-down priorities. The lack of inclusion and local leadership in the design and implementation of ecosystem regeneration plans perpetuates the colonial heritage of the global North.
Engaging a bioregional approach invites us to reclaim our narratives of place and our sense of belonging. Within a bioregional governance model, we engage in participatory ways of analyzing and addressing ecosystem challenges specific to a bioregion. Through storytelling and creative practices rooted in arts and culture, we invite a deeper sense of ownership and accountability to place and build empathy for the realities faced by those who inhabit it. This approach deepens how people understand the challenges of their ecosystem, and feels more relatable than technical planning tools.
How can cultural memory and Indigenous wisdom serve as tangible tools for community and climate resilience?
Indigenous wisdom and biodiversity reflect centuries of resilience and adaptation to specific ecosystems. If we can work with native trees, heritage crops, and culture bearers to guide the resilience of a bioregion, we can co-create ecosystems that are more robust and regenerative in the face of the growing polycrisis.

Innovation often requires letting go. What beliefs, assumptions, or practices have you had to unlearn to create real change?
For many years, I struggled to trust my own voice. I believed others, especially those with influence, could speak for me. Founding and running my own non-profit helped me believe in myself and in my ideas, even when they didn’t align with mainstream thinking.
I had to unlearn the conditioning that told me I wasn’t good enough, that I was too idealistic, or too emotionally invested, “a bleeding heart” archetype. I often judged myself for feeling the suffering of others a lot, and that my response to this was to shape solutions that would come from wholeness and not from fragmented solutions. I often judged myself for feeling others’ suffering deeply, and for wanting to create holistic, not fragmented, solutions. That’s not a mainstream view in my country, where development is often siloed: food, economy, energy, etc.
I had to begin listening to my own voice and trust that my heart, rooted in compassion, would attract the right people and resources to bring these ideas to life.
What local practices or Indigenous wisdom keepers have most influenced your approach?
I’ve learned deeply from wisdom keepers around the world and, locally, from the Babaylans (shamans of the various ethnic groups of the pre-colonial Philippine islands) I’ve worked with and studied under. Ritual plays a central role: as a bridge between the human and spirit worlds, between the seen and unseen. It helps us facilitate forms of acknowledgement, requests, and reparations. Ritual is a powerful way of remembering the sacred. It gathers people to remember and connect with their ancestral heritage, their values, and, more importantly, the critical needs and priorities of their place. It strengthens our commitment to restore our relationship with nature and each other. And it can be embedded in any kind of work—governance, advocacy, enterprise, and beyond.

What has been your biggest lesson in making the invisible visible—whether sacred sites, cultural erosion, or the deep interconnection between nature and human identity?
It may not be an exact expression of the invisible that emerges from this process, but it is the making of it that matters. It is how we create meaning from the wisdom and stories held in place that becomes important. The intangible coexists with the tangible as an expression of its “soul.”
This is part of the human journey—or in the case of my project, it is part of a place and its people discovering their relationship to soul: the soul of their forest, their rivers, their land.
Art can serve as that bridge, translating what is felt into paintings, music, or embodied expression. This work gives value to the relational alongside the rational. The cognitive with the affective. The data with the story. Without narratives, the information we gather—facts, numbers, charts—has no meaning.

Beyond funding, what kinds of support—emotional, relational, or otherwise—are essential for innovators to thrive?
Having a support system with mentors and coaches—whether someone who guides you or a peer you learn with as you exchange insights—is essential. Innovation work is not easy; you’re often setting a course that no one, or very few, have walked before. It can be a lonely path, shaping something that sits outside the norm.
I’ve also realized how important communication support is. Writing doesn’t come easily to me, and I need more time to focus on the actual work. Documenting the process, creating content, and promoting the initiative are not easy tasks to do alone.
Fast-forward 10 years—what do you hope your work has made possible?
In 10 years, we will have passed the 2030 threshold—both the point at which climate impacts may become irreversible, and the target for meeting the Sustainable Development Goals. I hope that before then, we will have established foundational bioregional learning sites in critical ecosystems, enabling communities to address their climate vulnerabilities. And by 2035, that we will have doubled the number of bioregions engaged in this work.
