our story
Our story is not about us — It’s about bringing the human soul back into a conscious relationship with nature.

iRewild Institute seeks to cultivate eco-citizens, to create a more reciprocal relationship with each other, modern society, and our natural world, in order to foster a thriving and flourishing planet for all its inhabitants.
In an effort to gain a greater understanding of what underlies our disconnect from nature, it is necessary to expand the sources of knowledge creation. We are using a transdisciplinary approach that can extend our understanding and provide rich information to help illuminate the totality of our psychic processes and the root cause. If we can change the way we experience the world, it evolves our personal consciousness, and dissolves boundaries—we experience ourselves as less and less separate from the web of life—restoring well-being not only for ourselves, but also for all life on Earth.
On the deepest levels, the root issues — the perceptions, the paradigms, and unconscious influences from which we operate — can have profound effects on the fragility of our planet. Becoming aware of unconscious values, beliefs, motives, and ways of thinking allows us to connect to a deeper realm of awareness, a place of communion, where we are no longer the person we were when it began. We go through a subtle but profound shift that allows our inner knowing to emerge. We begin to see what wants to emerge, together with our own role and journey — a place from which we can address root issues and where future possibilities emerge.
No one person or business can restore our world’s fragile environment, but we can restore bits and pieces of the environment that are within our reach. Therefore, iRewild is reimagining think tanks, making them Internet-based and accessible for everyone. We bring together non-political, intellectual teams of change-makers, established and emerging, to solve urgent and complex challenges for corporations, entrepreneurs, researchers, students, and communities by accelerating breakthrough ideas and future actions that work to sustain a viable world for humanity and all life on Earth.
We invite you to join our international community of established and emerging experts, who share iRewild’s interest to catalyze global conversations, cultivate ecological consciousness, and play an instrumental role in solving complex challenges.

Our team of interdisciplinary thought leaders are working on ecological consciousness, eco-capitalism leadership, eco-stories, eco-children, and eco-psychology initiatives. In that effort, we design and implement new programs, that operate at the root cause level, toward raising individual and collective consciousness regarding humanity’s relationship to the planet.
We continue to deepen our impact to:
Develop a global movement of emerging, forward-looking thinkers and high-integrity leaders from a diversity of backgrounds. In so doing, iRewild inspires a broadening participation of individuals and partners to work collaboratively, creating new approaches that positively impact the wellbeing and health of our natural world.
Educate, develop awareness in, and empower the next generations of ecologically conscious youth to engage in, bring light to, think creatively to solve ecological challenges in their communities.
Convene a vast force of adults of all ages in rural communities as a force for ecological good. iRewild endeavors to spark their intellect, awareness, energy, and resources as leaders exploring thoughtful new routes to restore and maintain the long-term health of their local ecosystems.
