Education Foundations
for Thriving Futures
Every generation inherits a world shaped by those who came before
and leaves one for those who follow
Today we live in a time of extraordinary possibility and unprecedented complexity. Scientific discovery, technological innovation and global communication have expanded humanity’s ability to understand and influence the world. At the same time, ecological, social and economic systems have become increasingly interconnected, making many of the relationships upon which our future depends harder to perceive.
Knowledge remains essential, but knowledge alone is no longer enough. The challenges of the twenty-first century require the wisdom to observe carefully, think critically, learn across cultures, work collaboratively and adapt as new understanding emerges. Thriving Futures 2100 explores how education can help cultivate these capacities, drawing together insights from science, Indigenous knowledge, systems thinking, education and practical experience.
The project offers ways to understand regeneration transitions and opportunities to participate in them. Educators, community leaders, researchers, students, parents and others interested in humanity’s future are invited to join a learning community committed to observing carefully, learning continuously and contributing thoughtfully to the regeneration of Earth, communities and humanity.

Festival 2100
Where the learning comes together
Festival 2100: Regeneration Economics in Action is a travelling living learning experience that brings the River System of Human Time to life. Schools and other visitors journey through five experiential learning areas, exploring how humans have lived, learned, cooperated and organised their societies and economies, and the regeneration transitions that could shape the future.
Festivals take place in different locations around the world, wherever possible beside a river or within a living landscape. Global Care Packs participants join the Festival as trained mentors, working alongside the core Festival team and local communities to turn learning into shared experience and action.
