Bioneers are biological pioneers who work with nature to heal nature and ourselves and who are dedicated to re-imagining the future of our planet. Bioneers foster connection, cross-pollination, and collaboration by bringing together diverse people and projects within a broadly progressive framework. This meeting is open to the public.
Founder Kenny Ausubel coined the word bioneers in 1990 to describe an emerging culture of social and scientific innovators who are mimicking nature’s operating instructions to serve human ends while enriching the web of life. We take a “solve-the-whole-problem” approach: Taking care of nature means taking care of people - and taking care of people means taking care of nature. It’s part of our mission.
As a 501(C)3 nonprofit, we provide solutions-based education and social connectivity through the Bioneers national and local conferences and our programs, including: The Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature radio series; anthology book series; television programs and online community. We act as a key source for the media. Our materials are used by colleges, schools and organizations. We conduct core programs on Women¹s Leadership, Dreaming New Mexico (state-based restoration), Youth and Food Systems.
