Drawing on her expertise in food sovereignty and ecological resilience, Wanda will highlight how cultivating healthy, sustainable food systems can regenerate not just our bodies, but our collective well-being. She will discuss the importance of community-driven approaches to nourishment, from local food initiatives to larger-scale ecological practices, and how we can all play a part in ensuring a thriving, resilient future for both people and the planet.

Towards Regenerative Time: Can we create a more regenerative world if we don’t know how to regenerate ourselves? How can we make regular time at all scales for rest and nourishment, integration and re-alignment, learning and creativity, connection and service? In this interactive session, we’ll reflect on our relationship with time and explore cultivating a sabbatical rhythm for living, working, and creating with greater harmony. Bring a notebook!
Roxi Shohadaee + Jenny Stefanotti | "Embodied Systems Thinking: Mapping Nourishment Across Self, Community, and Planet"
How does personal nourishment connect to the well-being of our communities and the planet? This hands-on design sprint with Jenny Stefanotti and Roxi Shohadaee invite you to map the intersections between self-care, collective nourishment, and planetary regeneration through the lens of Embodied Systems Thinking. Using visual mapping, guided reflection, and rapid ideation exercises, we will explore how nourishment flows through our lives—where it is abundant, where it is disrupted, and how we can design for more regenerative, interconnected systems. Participants will leave with a tangible framework for understanding their role in shaping a world where nourishment extends beyond the individual to sustain communities and ecosystems alike.
