Each participant will be part of both a Focus Group (based on expertise) and a Multidisciplinary Group (combining diverse perspectives). These groups will meet online before the event to prepare and will continue in-person at the event to contribute to the overall framework.

The event will produce a written framework, simulations, and potentially a game to guide the development of regenerative, self-sustaining habitations within bioregions. These outputs are collectively owned by the co-op formed of participants during the event and will be distributed as creative commons copy left.

Participants can choose from new on-site Pod suites, camping, dorms, RV's or glamping options. Accommodations will be charged separately from event ticket depending on your preference.

The short answer is yes you can stay offsite. That could be your own home, a hotel, an AirBnB, whatever works for you. We are working on partnering with local hotels and will have details before tickets are available. But, we encourage you to consider staying onsite, even if it is moderately rustic. There is something magical that happens when people live and work and play together. It forms a deeper community bond and experience. The potential for synergy increases. We will have security at the entrance and you will be required to show your Masterminding EDEN passport for admission every time you come onsite. These are individually validated via blockchain and are non-transferable. Is the ticket price reduced for those who stay offsite? The event ticket itself remains the same, accommodation is booked separately.
