GEN Ukraine

GEN Ukraine is a grassroots network of over 55 ecovillages, family farms, and intentional communities across the country, serving as the Ukrainian branch of the Global Ecovillage Network with roots in local resilience, mutual aid, and ecological regeneration. The network has planted 4,000 trees and restored 300+ hectares of degraded land across 11 regions since the start of the war, while focusing on social regeneration through zero waste practices and transforming former schools into community education hubs for eco tourism and environmental education. The initiative restores war-affected land and communities through tree planting, rainwater harvesting, biodiversity monitoring, and local climate hubs, combining traditional knowledge with regenerative finance tools to build resilience and food security.
