Place-based Transition
Regenerative Futures work with convenors looking to accelerate significant benefits through systems change. These include towns and cities, regions and countries, transport hubs and theme parks.
These Mini-ecosystems require a place-based approach and provides opportunities to connect places to learn, share and implement breakthrough models.

A place-based approach to tackling challenges, as opposed to a place-agnostic one, offers several advantages, emphasising the uniqueness of each locale and its specific needs, resources, and characteristics. Instead of applying a broad, one-size-fits-all solution, a place-based strategy recognises that what works well in one area might not be effective or efficient in another.
According to research findings by considering the local context and tailoring solutions accordingly, more economic, social and environmental benefits can be achieved at a substantially lower cost.
This approach demonstrates that a focused investment in local measures is not only economically sound but socially advantageous as well. When applying a place-based approach to your challenges, it's beneficial to consider the following points:
Tailoring solutions to local characteristics can yield higher returns on investment.
Engaging with and leveraging the strengths of local stakeholders ensures that interventions are relevant and sustainable.
A focus on local needs can drive innovation and adoption of new practices that are best suited for the areas can yield higher returns on investment.
It allows for the creation of robust, diverse economies that are resilient to global shifts and crises.
Our Approach
Government, Combined and Local Authorities face complex challenges in creating sustainable, inclusive futures while managing financial constraints.
We help tackle these issues by co-creating solutions that work for all. Place-based transition empowers local authorities to create a significant global impact on climate action by leveraging their unique strengths, assets, and challenges.
By embracing this holistic approach, local authorities can develop tailored strategies that address the interconnected social, economic, and environmental factors within their communities, while fostering a just transition to a resilient, and regenerative future.
