What people say about GEN’s courses

Thousands of people have studied regenerative practices with GEN. Here is what some of them have to say.

This has been a remarkable experience. I have loved every element – the resources and core content, the wonderful facilitation, the sharing sessions, the inspiring poems, the beautiful collage of amazing people! Thank you!

HEATHER

At a time when we urgently and globally need new role-models for a radically different way to live, I can’t think of any more timely approach than the “living labs” ecovillages are. GEN Education seems to capture this better than any other initiative I today know about.

Simon

I have found so much of what I and our community group need right now! I can’t thank you enough for the sense of caring and love and beautiful facilitation in teaching us all the amazingness from GEN.
