The Indigenous Peoples' Plan for Planetary Regeneration

Indigenous-led regeneration of Earth's vital territories.

Our Pillars

Three roots, one living shield.

Stewardship

Centering Original Peoples as the rightful guardians and decision-makers of their ancestral territories.

Bioculture

Protecting the inseparable weave of land, traditional and ancestral culture, Indigenous Knowledge Systems, and species — the living memory of place.

Bioeconomies

Cultivating regenerative regional economies — including inclusive biotech and eco-tourism — rooted in ancestral knowledge and the abundance of intact ecosystems.

52 territories. One Earth. The time is now.

Join the Earth Elders Council in returning stewardship of the Earth's most vital ecosystems to those who have always carried them.
