The Solutioning Hive: Catalyzing Transformation Through Collaboration

This collaborative project tackles food insecurity, unemployment, and environmental degradation in Bushbuckridge. Through a community hub, partners offer training in agroecology, river rewilding, and resilience building. The long-term vision includes a mixed-production farm, chicken enterprise, training center, and biochar production. Project Biome supports by sourcing resources, identifying financial opportunities, and providing project management expertise.

Rewild Mpumalanga, led by Geasphere, restores ecosystems and boosts local livelihoods. This collaborative initiative revives water sources, cleans rivers, and improves soil. The EcoHub tackles invasive species and creates economic opportunities, such as biochar production. Project Biome supports with expert project management and resources through strategic collaborations, supporting regional landscape regeneration through collaborative action.

Founded by the SAOSO Foundation, Heal the Planet is a transformative program focused on regenerating food systems through agroecology, landscape restoration, and watershed management, with a focus on empowering youth and women. Anchored in the Participatory Guarantee System network of Southern Africa, it offers a holistic approach to decentralizing food systems while addressing environmental and socio-economic challenges. This is a scalable model promoting food sovereignty and community resilience.

The Regional Accelerator CoLab (RAC), hosted by the Biome Solutioning Hive, is an innovative platform that fosters radical collaboration among organizations driving social and environmental regeneration. By breaking down systemic silos, RAC enables diverse groups to co-create, align, and scale initiatives across communities and landscapes. Focused on Rewilding, Regeneration, and Reconnection, the CoLab strengthens collective capacity, accelerates impact, and advances the transition to living systems-based development.
