Regenerative Pacific Intercultural Learning Exchanges
The Regional Pacific Regenerative Verification Program is closely connected to our Regenerative Pacific Intercultural Learning Exchanges — a hands-on program where participants learn, unlearn, and reconnect through lived experience of regenerative practices.
The exchanges create space for deep learning, reflection, and dialogue around the Verification Program. Participants experience regenerative farming and hosting practices firsthand, while also learning how to tell their own stories and articulate the values and knowledge that make regeneration in the Pacific distinct.
As part of the wider Regional Pacific Regenerative Verification Initiative, the exchanges help spread regenerative practices across the region while building practical skills in culturally grounded agritourism, gastronomy, agriculture, and value-adding.
Together, the Verification Program and the Learning Exchanges demonstrate what it means to scale deep — strengthening relationships, knowledge, and practice — and show the real reach and impact of Pacific-led, co-designed collaboration across communities.
“I didn’t expect it to be like this. I didn’t expect to feel like this. I started this journey with you guys, and I didn’t know anything. I feel like a changed man, going home filled with pride, going on to share this knowledge, continuing to exchange with you guys and those back home. And as the saying goes, every good thing comes to an end. But this is not the end for us—we are stronger together. We can thrive as we continue this journey. Going back home, I feel the strength to try to put into action what I’ve learned throughout this journey.”

Our exchange programs are unique and powerful opportunities to grow as a Regenerative Steward and to become a key ambassador for Regenerative Vanua and the Regenerative Verification Program. This exchange is not a typical training or workshop — it’s a shared journey of learning, unlearning, and reconnecting.
Our 2026 Exchange Program’s will be held in Vanuatu in May, Australia in April and the Northern Mariana Islands in July.
Applications for Vanuatu and Australia are now open.
