Anyone! It takes different people working together in community to create a different world. If you are focused on regeneration and sustainability in your field, or are personally invested in reshaping your role to deepen your impact, you are likely to appreciate our expeditions.
While the wilder places we venture to aren’t always accessible, we strive to find ways to make it work for everyone. If you have accessibility requirements, please let us know and we’ll reach out to our location partners to see what’s possible.

We are keen to join forces with those who are already working in the space of building the next economy with hospitality, community, creativity, and practicality. In an age of technology and AI, we are advocating for an equal advancement of human intelligence through place-making and next economy skill-building. Of equal interest to us is that Scotland has a strategy in place for regeneration in its fullest sense: people and place. We loved what Wildland was focused on in conservation and custodianship that speaks to our theme of a ‘rewild economy.’

We want to keep a bit of mystery to ensure we maintain some wonder for our expeditions. Each day of the experience will include food, drink, activity, conversation, contemplation, and calm. We won’t have any keynote speeches or powerpoint slides. The application will help us also to curate some of the elements, but you can expect that we are collectively building the skills and mindsets that will help us carry forward into a more livable future.

Our Scotland Expedition is expected to have a group size of up to 10 participants. We offer small cohort experiences to build trust and skills needed to live differently in a different kind of economy. We love this quote that emphasizes our convictions about small: “Emergence emphasizes critical connections over critical mass, building authentic relationships, listening with all the senses of the body and the mind.”—Adrienne Maree Brown
