La Tierra

La Tierra spans 430 acres in Costa Rica's Nicoya Peninsula, aiming to create a blueprint for sustainable living — a new approach to building with and for nature. The initiative challenges conventional community development through the principle: "give more than you take."

I designed and facilitated think tanks for the regenerative village's open-source master plan, known as VillageOS — an immersive world filled with art and innovative ideas to tackle some of the world's biggest challenges.

Highlights

• Designed and facilitated collaborative think tanks engaging global contributors across diverse professional fields
• Open-source master plan (VillageOS) enabling others to reference and build upon learnings for regenerative communities
• Deep immersion in sustainable land development, Rights of Nature, and regenerative governance
• Innovative facilitation using Miro for real-time large-group collaboration across time zones

Key Contributions

• Co-designed identification of master plan topics and categories
• Created engagement artifacts and communication channels for participants ("guardians")
• Developed think tank design template in Miro
• Co-facilitated sessions with global contributors
• Advised on strategy as active contributor
• Identified and engaged support team members
