Deep in the Layers
Santa Cruz de La Sierra, Bolivia
Located in Bolivia’s Yunga transition ecosystem, this project promotes forest conservation through cultivating medicinal mushrooms like Lion’s Mane. Our goal is to build a regenerative bioeconomy that protects the forest and empowers local communities. We use practices that prevent deforestation and strengthen ecosystem resilience. Innovation drives the creation of new products and markets linked to health and conservation. Community ties with forest guardians and traditional knowledge keep the project rooted and autonomous. We focus on traceability and impact measurement tools for continuous improvement. Together, we aim to blend ancestral wisdom with emerging technologies to regenerate the forest.
INFRASTRUCTURE
Legal Layer
The Legal Layer provides legitimacy and institutional stability for the development of ReGen Nodes, articulating partnerships with subnational governments and designing new regulatory frameworks such as the EEIRZs. These zones allow for the experimentation of innovative sustainable development policies, the attraction of green investment, participatory governance models, and the recognition of new community legal forms. By integrating the legal, ecological, and digital realms, this layer facilitates the transition toward more distributed, adaptive, and common-good-oriented governance, aligning local regeneration with next-generation public policies.
INFRASTRUCTURE
Digital Layer
The Network relies on a regenerative digital governance platform that enables each ReGen Node to coordinate, make decisions, and distribute resources transparently and efficiently. This modular, interoperable, and open-source architecture is based on sovereign digital identity, smart contracts, and decentralized governance 2.0 principles. It integrates ReFi (Web3 Regenerative Finance) tools to measure, verify, and finance ecosystem and community impacts, aligning collective intelligence with distributed automation. Thus, the Digital Layer acts as the Network's nervous system, promoting local autonomy and global coherence through accessible, traceable, and empathetic participation mechanisms.
