What will it take to restore balance to our world? How can we repair our devastated environments, and secure future generations’ survival? And what’s the key to unlock the mindset shift to enable truly regenerative transformation? A new book, Flourish, reaches beyond ‘sustainability’ to explore ‘regenerative’ practice, what it really means, and how we can get there together. Whether you’re a built environment professional or client, an activist or a policymaker, Flourish offers you an urgent invitation to inhabit a new array of possibilities. Join co-author Sarah Ichioka in conversation with Adib Jalal about how we can build a thriving future, together.
