One Community100 Years of Healing and Regeneration – One Community Weekly Progress Update #100
100 years of healing and regeneration starts somewhere. We believe the most successful strategy will include specific and Highest Good of All approaches to food, energy, housing, education, economics, fulfilled living, and earth stewardship components. With this in mind, we are creating open source tools, tutorials, resources, and blueprints covering all of these areas.

- Here’s our world-change methodology
- Here’s how this becomes self-replicating
- Here’s how we are open source and free-sharing all the do-it-yourself designs
