The bedari collective invests in solutions that enable regenerative systems—supporting the ability for individuals, communities and our planet to grow, together. We envision a future in which natural resources are replenished, built infrastructure has a positive impact, and we all care deeply for each other.
We believe in looking at the world through the lens of interdependency as the essential component of wellbeing. Through this lens, regenerative thinking can help us live in a way that promotes individual, collective and planetary balance.
The bedari collective works with partners who seek to catalyze change globally using regenerative principles to build greater consciousness and connection between people and with nature. While our portfolio consists of operating companies, issue-focused investments and philanthropic programs, we approach all our work with a shared set of criteria that reflect our beliefs to help us effectively invest our human, knowledge and financial capital.
Rather than operating in silos, we take a holistic approach to problem-solving and solutions-creation, combining research, education and both market-based and philanthropic impact strategies to synergistically move ideas forward and hopefully drive systems change.
We are exploring regenerative design opportunities through four primary systems:
Essential systems:
Using naturally regenerating resources and pursuing environmentally sensitive design strategies to serve needs vital for survival.
Built systems:
Transforming human-created systems and infrastructure to ensure they are regenerative in their impact.
Nature systems:
Preserving and restoring environmental biodiversity and infrastructure to protect the natural ecosystems that sustain life.
Care systems:
Restoring and supporting connection with self, others and nature to promote the ability to collectively heal and thrive, physically, mentally and spiritually.
