TACKLING THE ROOT
OF ECOLOGICAL CRISIS

We unite law, spirituality, wisdom and science to tackle the root cause of our world’s biggest problem - the ecological crisis.

Advancing Nature’s Rights Since 2015

From presenting our EU Draft Directive to the European Parliament in 2017 to conducting influential studies for the European Economic and Social Committee, we've been pioneering the legal and philosophical framework necessary for recognising Nature's rights as the foundation upon which a thriving regenerative society can be built.

Our Vision and Mission

Our vision is a world where the rights of Nature are universally recognised as the foundation of all other rights. Our mission is to mainstream the Integrated Rights Framework in law and policy worldwide by 2050.

Why We're Different

Most efforts to tackle the ecological crisis operate within a broken legal system—one that actively fuels the problem. We’re different. We draft and campaign for bold, innovative laws that transform the system itself. Our groundbreaking Integrated Rights Framework embeds human and economic rights within the rights of Nature and aligns the SDGs with planetary boundaries, ensuring a thriving future for all life on Earth. In doing so we tackle the root cause of the ecological crisis - separation from the rest of Nature.

Change the Paradigm

Our work begins with transforming the legal framework to align with the interconnected reality of life on Earth. The Integrated Rights Framework embeds Nature’s rights as the foundation for all other rights, encoding planetary boundaries into law to create the conditions for a regenerative society. By shifting away from outdated 17th Century legal paradigms, we aim to establish a thriving future where Nature, people, and the economy prosper together.

Transform the System

We drive systemic change by combining top-down advocacy with grassroots action. We campaign for law and policy adoption of the Integrated Rights Framework at the national, regional, and global levels, while also providing international consultation services to guide its implementation. Complementing this, Nature’s Rights Zones demonstrate practical, community-led applications of regenerative practices, bridging policy and on-the-ground solutions. Together, these efforts transform governance and society from the roots up.

Embody the Change

Change starts with empowered individuals. Our experiential workshops reconnect people with Nature and equip them to launch impactful projects, creating a ripple effect to grow the movement. Using innovative tools like systemic constellations, we heal the roots of separation and foster local action. Through advocacy, training, and public speaking, we amplify awareness and build momentum for the Integrated Rights Framework. By embodying the change, we lead the way toward a regenerative future.
