ABOUT 
​
THE FIELD GUIDE TO A REGENERATIVE ECONOMY

The Field Guide is a project of Capital Institute, a non-partisan think tank exploring the economic transition to a more just, regenerative, and thus sustainable way of living on this earth through the transformation of finance.  Our Regenerative Capitalism framework is the source code for all our work. Since 2010, The Field Guide has been telling the stories of projects and enterprises of the emerging Regenerative Economy.  It is Capital Institute's attempt to link theory with practice, shining a light on how the Regenerative Economy is emerging in the real world, if only we have eyes to see.
