  • About Us

    EcoCiv promotes long-term solutions for the wellbeing of people and the planet.

    EcoCiv’s hypothesis is that (1) supporting local leaders in identifying their visions for an ecological civilization, and (2) connecting those leaders with the global resources, knowledge, and support they need will accelerate systemic change toward societies that together constitute an Ecological Civilization. Programmatic work at the intersection of local actions and theory on root causes is often the missing piece in efforts to establish an ecological civilization that serves the wellbeing of people and the planet.

    EcoCiv aggregates and amplifies existing solutions or actions, connecting dots between siloed issues and breaking down barriers in order to catalyze action. Specifically, EcoCiv supports local partners in the process of designing and implementing more effective and efficient solutions in particular locations (“hubs”), and then aims to prompt the replication and scaling of those solutions in other locations. The goal of these interventions is that an increasing number of communities make measurable progress toward a just and sustainable society.
