Leading the regenerative revolution
Our dream is to make human activity part of the natural cycle again.
How?
We believe that we can make that dream come true by making (the collaboration with) nature the starting point of all our action.
Execution
We do this by helping to develop succesfull projects, based on regenerative principles.
- Creating healthy nature with biodiversity:
- With pristine nature to enjoy for us and future generations;
- That gives healthy crops and products;
- Where people have a place to reconnect, to observe, to learn, to teach.
The three principles
Kayatree uses the three ethics of permaculture as the foundation of all our projects.
Earth care
Earth care means that our project are nature driven. It means we take the functioning of natures ecosystems as foundation of our projects. We incorporate regenerative goals into the foundation and work with nature rather than against thus contributing to healthy nature and biodiversity.
People care
People care means that our project are inclusive. It means that our projects include rather than exlude local communities. It means our projects respects, celebrates and incorporate (local) culture an the history upon which they are built.
Fair share
Fair share means our projects are beneficial for the earth and the people involved. It means out projects incorporate the economical, social and environmental goals of all involved: investors, businesses, workers, visitors and local communities.
The Three Phases
Kayatree uses an integral projectplan always consisting of three Phases:
Phase 1 - Plan
Research, conceptual design, planning, recomendation
Phase 2 - Implement
Design, implementation, management, evaluation.
Phase 3 - Safeguard
Safeguarding, improvement, strengthing innovation.
Each fase serves as the solid foundation of the next. Working in clear defined fases ensures the optimal integration of all objectives involved from different stakeholders.
Phase 1 - Plan
At Kayatree, the first phase of observation and research, in line with the ethics of permaculture, is an essential part of every successful assignment. Projects that depend on and influence the surrounding ecosystems must be based on the functioning of those same systems. A very thorough preparation is therefore the foundation of a successful implementation and optimal results at the end of step two : a project in which people and nature strengthen each other and contribute to each other's development and flourishing.
Phase 2 - Implement
The second phase is focused on implementing the final design. It consists of project management based on a continues feedbackloop and evaluation of progress with the main stakeholders. This constant active analysis and communication of the project objectives ensures project flexibility, manages expectations and is paramount to an optimal end result.
Phase 3 - Safeguard
Reflecting the functioning of nature, Kayatree sees projects as an ongoing cycle in need of safeguarding, open for improvement and with possibilities to evolute. In this phase we make sure that the regenerative principles are thoroughly imbedded after the project is implemented. We share our knowhow and give advise whenever requiered in the future evolution of a project.
