Learning network

Bioregional Learning Alliance

BLC is a founding member of the Bioregional Learning Alliance, an international network of practitioners dedicated to growing the field of bioregioning. After several years of collaboration, and a pilot series of Bioregional Conversations, the Alliance designed and delivered a webinar series with Gaia Education in 2024, back now for a second edition in 2026.

Bioregioning in Practice 2.0

Bioregioning, the practice of working for resilience, regeneration and climate adaptation at the scale of geographically-defined regions, is gaining traction with a wider audience. We are increasingly hearing economists, politicians, ecologists and thought leaders using the term in the context of responding to the polycrisis. The number of bioregional centres around the world is growing, all of which are activating their bioregions in ways unique to them and to their place. In response, the 2026 edition of Bioregioning in Practice offers a series of themed learning sessions that take practitioners into a deepening of their understanding of how to both start and lead this work.

You are invited to join the 10-week online series that introduces the full spectrum of bioregional practice.


• Learn directly how to work with whole systems and landscapes
• Join an international learning community working at bioregional scale
• Discover the many pathways and practices that together make up bioregioning
• Explore how to work regeneratively, drawing on place-sourced and indigenous wisdom
• Participate in interactive discussions and networking opportunities
• Learn about upcoming opportunities to deepen your practice through residentials, learning labs and mentorship offered by members of the Alliance.

This course includes a live translation to Spanish during session with practitioners.

Bioregioning in Practice 2.0 began in March and is now running. Gaia registration: gaiaeducation.org
