Bioneers Information

Bioneers is a fertile hub of social and scientific innovators with practical and visionary solutions for the world's most pressing environmental and social challenges. The shift is hitting the fan. In this time, we’re all called upon to be leaders. Bioneers connects people with solutions and each other to create a revolution from the heart of nature. Our acclaimed national and local conferences are complemented by media outreach, including our award-winning radio series, The Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature. We serve as a source for media makers such as Leonardo DiCaprio’s film The 11th Hour and Michael Pollan’s best-selling book The Omnivore’s Dilemma. Our media materials are used in schools and curricula. As a community of leadership, Bioneers acts as a media amplifier for many respected leaders, a hatchery for young and emerging leaders, and a connection point for engaged citizens dedicated to making a difference. As an interdisciplinary network of networks, we span the arc of the human endeavor to reconcile the interdependence of human and natural systems. Our programs are: · Changing the Mindscape: Public Education & Media Outreach · Education for Action · Everywoman’s Leadership · Resilient Communities · Indigenous Wisdom · The Bioneers Community of Mentors Bioneers illuminates the leading edges of transformational change and “the greatest people you’ve never heard of.” We provide a platform for communities of color, indigenous peoples and women leaders whose voices may seldom be heard elsewhere. Now in its 28th year, the Bioneers conference (c. 3,000 people annually) is a perennial wellspring of cutting-edge content and dynamic, diverse voices that supply the primary source for our public education and media outreach a focal point to build community and collaboration.
