Supporting resilient and self-determined Vanuas throughout the Pacific to practice regenerative stewardship.
Decolonising and rekindling the connection and regeneration of Vanua
Regenerative Vanua focuses on working within each Vanua’s inherited and traditional stewardship, custodianship and guardianship practices — aiming to restore pride in Indigenous food systems and food culture by promoting and facilitating regenerative agritourism, regenerative gastronomy, and regenerative food systems, ultimately resulting in regenerative, healthy oceans and ridge to reef landscapes.
Our Organisation
At the core of Regenerative Vanua is the desire to support Vanua’s to finance their transition to regenerative living, and to support the collective wellbeing of the Vanua. Regenerative Vanua rejects the notion of these Vanuas as destinations, and instead understands them to be communities who generously provide educational and transformational experiences where visitors are able to connect with regenerative knowledge systems in the Pacific.
