Regenerative Futures: Eight Principles for Thinking and Practice

Abstract
This article draws from extensive regenerative futures research to provide eight principles for thinking and practice. Existing regenerative fields, including regenerative development, differ from prevailing approaches to sustainability in that they move beyond harm mitigation as an aspirational objective, instead seeking to achieve net positive benefits for integrated natural and social systems. Futures and strategic foresight methods can deepen regenerative approaches both conceptually and in practice. This article draws from a range of qualitive research methods that have explored these regenerative futures concepts, including Causal Layered Analysis, case studies and semi structured interviews. It distils this research into eight guiding principles that provide a framework for transformation whilst also recognising that regenerative futures are context specific and unique to place.
