RETREATS & EVENTS

Bringing our community together for nourishment & inspiration

We gather in nature to inspire minds, rejuvenate bodies, and nurture community, centring human connection in all we do.

Each year, we host gatherings and festivals, bringing together our Fellows, Partners, and friends across the UK, Brazil & South Africa. Together, we foster new bonds, strengthen shared missions, and spark creativity for the change we envision.

Economy of Care
& Beauty

Be The Earth's inaugural Festival: a community united by a vision of the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.

July 2024, deep in the heart of Somerset, we brought together 80 community members, from grassroots activists to wealth holders, building collaboration & trust.

Listening to Nature

At the serene Bertha Retreat in Boschendal, our 2023 Annual Regional Gathering in South Africa was a source of deep nourishment & inspiration.

We choose regenerative spaces for our Gatherings, where we can commune with nature and invite its voice into everything we do.

Deepening Connections

Like a mycelial network, we weave connections and offer nourishment across the ecosystems in which we work.

In 2023, we were honoured to host our Regional Gathering in Brazil at the breathtaking Terra Luminous, on the edge of the sacred Atlantic rainforest.

Online Events

Our online events and webinars are open to all, welcoming participants from across the globe. We explore topics such as trust-based philanthropy and post-capitalist systems. Explore some of our recent webinars below.

Flow Funding: The Radical Frontiers of Trust-Based Philanthropy

Flow Funding is a cutting-edge approach to philanthropy created by Marion Weber, who refuted traditional models of grantmaking & chose to put trust at the centre of all her work.

Giving Circle: Philanthropy Guided by Collective Intelligence & Feminine Principles

Giving circles emerged as an innovation in philanthropy in the early 1990s and have expanded exponentially since the 2000s, particularly in the US.

A collaboration with Regenerosity & TRC, this webinar delves into the historic and current role of money and discuss the values, principles, and processes of a new paradigm that prioritises life.

We believe in the power of bringing people together to create change. As well as hosting our own events, we are proud to sponsor mission-aligned events across our portfolio of work.

To play, press and hold the enter key. To stop, release the enter key.
