ReGen_U's intent is to inspire students of all ages to imagine and invent solutions for real world design challenges by referencing wisdom found from natural system symbiosis, and biomimicry of ecosystems.
By engaging in small teams that express ideas through hands-on activities, progressive learning takes place through physical model building, mechanical device interaction, data-driven knowledge aggregation, and the creation of digital environments and simulations that provide tangible results even after just a few days starting the program.
Participants extend their learning activities through the application of Ai and Machine Learning algorithms starting from basic principles and concepts, to actively training large language models (LLMs) that lead to a stronger understanding and vocabulary that transforms complexity to day-to-day relevance and implementation.
The core focus of the content is based on the principles of sustainability, regeneration, and resiliency in the built environment, especially germane to urban planning for ‘smart cities’ and the relationship of natural resource flows in providing access to life-supporting infrastructure that builds thriving and flourishing communities.
Welcome to Our Approach to Regenerative Resiliency
At the intersection of design thinking, climate adaptability, and regenerative resilience, we are pioneering solutions for a sustainable future. As the challenges of climate change intensify, our focus is on creating resilient built environments and smart cities that are not only prepared for these changes but are also capable of thriving in the face of them.
Our Vision
We envision a world where cities and communities are designed with nature in mind—where every building, street, and public space contributes to a healthier, more resilient planet. By embracing regenerative practices, we aim to restore and enhance the natural systems that sustain us, ensuring that our urban environments are adaptable and robust in the face of climate-related challenges.
Smart City Planning for a Resilient Future
Smart city planning is essential to creating resilient urban environments. By leveraging data, technology, and innovative design, we aim to create cities that are:
Our Process
Our design thinking process is collaborative, interdisciplinary, and deeply rooted in the principles of regenerative resiliency. We work closely with urban planners, architects, engineers, ecologists, and community stakeholders to develop solutions that are both innovative and practical.
What is Regenerative Resiliency?
Regenerative resiliency goes beyond sustainability. It’s about designing and building systems that regenerate natural resources, support ecological balance, and create thriving communities. Our approach integrates the principles of circular economy, biodiversity enhancement, and sustainable urban planning to create environments that are not just resilient, but regenerative.
Climate Adaptability in the Built Environment
Climate adaptability is at the core of our design philosophy. We recognize that the built environment must evolve to withstand the impacts of climate change—from rising sea levels to extreme weather events. Our designs incorporate:
