Inspiring hope is essential for driving positive, meaningful action. At Eden: People+Planet, we partner with communities globally to restore and conserve landscapes, fostering collective actions driven by a shared sense of hope and purpose.
Inspired by Commonland’s 4 Returns framework, our approach focuses on delivering Inspiration, Social Capital, Natural Capital, and Financial Capital to generate lasting impacts for communities and ecosystems through our projects.
Inspiration
We foster the reconnection between local communities and nature, inspiring hope and a commitment to restoring the land. Through our shared sense of purpose and your support, we are confronting the growing pressures of a resource-constrained planet, working together to create sustainable, large-scale solutions.
Social Capital
Supporting people and their communities is central to our work. The Eden team engages local communities in every step of the restoration process, learning from the local knowledge, traditions, and needs while working directly with communities to enact resilient solutions for regionally specific challenges. This collaborative approach fosters a sense of ownership, leading to sustainable outcomes and stronger, more connected communities.
Natural Capital
Our projects focus on restoring ecosystems to their natural, healthy state. Through various methodologies, we support the restoration of whole landscapes, promoting thriving, biodiverse environments. This improves ecological balance and ensures the long-term viability and resilience of restored landscapes.
Financial Capital
The economic sustainability of local communities is crucial for the success of our projects. We develop initiatives that provide people with nature-based economic opportunities, such as agroforestry and beekeeping. By aligning environmental health with financial well-being, we ensure that our restoration efforts are sustainable and beneficial for the communities involved.
Support the 4 Return Framework
With your support, we can use the 4 Returns framework to ensure that our restoration efforts have a profound and lasting impact on people and the planet. Join us in supporting these innovative efforts and creating a sustainable future for all.
