On Regenerative Design and Social Permaculture with Abrah Dresdale | Sustainability Series | Ep. 96

Stories Lived. Stories Told.

What changes when we go beyond sustainability and strive for “regeneration” instead?
…
Abrah Dresdale, MA, is a bold and visionary social designer of cultural change at the intersection of land and justice. She consults through the national organization she co-founded, Regenerate Change, serves as faculty at UMass-Amherst and Omega Institute, and is the author of Regenerative Design for Changemakers: A Social Permaculture Guide.
Today, Abrah and Abbie discuss what it means to be a social designer using systems thinking; to tell “new stories” that expand our imagination of what is possible; and to embrace our personal power to be changemakers for ourselves and our our social worlds. Continuing the vocab lesson, Abrah breaks down what social permaculture is and the difference between sustainability and regeneration. Abbie and Abrah further explore the practice of making knowledge, language, and tools accessible; the work Abrah has done with prison food justice efforts and how it all connects; and the ways Abrah’s Jewish heritage shapes her approach to healing, cultural amnesia, and ancestral lineages.
