The moment demands it

Despite the many strengths of our beautiful city, we are facing a web of social and environmental challenges including climate impacts, housing access, inequality, food security, insecure work, loneliness and declining trust. We can all remember the smoke that covered Melbourne during the Black Summer in early 2020, and the unequal way different parts of this city suffered during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Systemic problems need systemic solutions. This requires coherent action by alliances of unusual actors, from business, non-profit, government, universities and the general public. 

The trouble is that our current system is not built for this type of epic collaboration. We urgently need to break out of our siloes and increase our collective ambition. We need new structures that reactivate and reorganise our system. Regen Melbourne is our collective answer to this challenge.

Together, we can work across sectors and siloes, raise our ambition and chart a tangible path towards a regenerative future for Melbourne.

Melbourne has a rich history of collective endeavour. We stand on the shoulders of those who have loved and cared for this place for generations

WE ARE BETTER TOGETHER

Regen Melbourne exists to drive ambitious, systemic and collaborative projects that chart a course to a regenerative Melbourne. 

We (re)organise the actors, resources and relationships that enable this future to become a reality. We know that single actors don’t solve systems problems. Our only way to a thriving future is together, which includes our businesses, social enterprises, community organisations, capital holders, government, universities and citizens across the city.
