Regenerative SPACE
OUR FLAGSHIP
GREEN ECONOMY
PROGRAMME
Our flagship programme removes invasive alien plants such as eucalyptus, pine and acacia species from the environment and beneficiates the biomass into various products such as firewood, woodchips and biochar. A very serious environmental problem is addressed while creating much needed employment and skills development for local communities.
The SUSTAINABILITY HUB
The Regenerative SPACE Sustainability Hub will act as a demonstration site to show how local socio-economic development can be driven by a symbiotic circular green economy aimed at eliminating waste. A green economy advocates a local economy characterised by sustainable development without degrading the environment.
The Forum
The Forum will provide a venue for education, training and capacity building.
Green entrepreneurs will benefit from small-business development courses offered via the Forum.
The Forum will offer complementary permaculture courses linked to the Seed Bank.
The Innovation Lab
The Innovation Lab will do prototype testing and the practical development of innovative ideas submitted by collaborators from across the world working in line with our ethos and philosophy.
It will demonstrate and test alternative ideas through critical interrogation of established processes and received wisdom to find robust, practical solutions associated with alternative building methods, waste water management, power generation, bio- and other waste processing and biomass beneficiation.
A specific focus of the Innovation Lab will be to research, refine, develop and produce products from all forms of waste: plastic, tyres, mill waste, clothing, building materials, etc.
The Seed Bank
The Seed Bank will grow and collect a diverse and well-curated selection of seeds to ensure a degree of local food sovereignty.
Processing black and grey water will provide a means to develop a hybrid aquaponics system linked to the Seed Bank, both to grow produce for sale and local distribution and to augment the Seed Bank and utilise soon-to-expire seeds.
