Philippines ERC inspires first regenerative island

Bohol Island Province in the Philippines has officially been declared the first regenerative island in the country! This new policy was set in motion and inspired by Ecosystem Restoration Community?The Regenesis Project?in cooperation with regional authorities. This groundbreaking development means the island now has a comprehensive and holistic framework and a 10-year roadmap which includes watershed restoration, water and food security, broad-scale ecosystem restoration, regenerative tourism, education, youth, civil society, and investment structures in place. And all this came about because a small community decided to take action and start rehabilitating their local, degraded land!
