Origen Circular

Origen Circular is a Colombia-based organization working at the intersection of ecological regeneration, education, cultural transformation, and community-led climate action. Rooted in Barichara, Santander, we design and facilitate place-based initiatives that help communities restore their relationship with water, biodiversity, territory, and one another. Our work combines participatory learning, regenerative design, youth empowerment, ancestral and local knowledge, ecological restoration, and systems thinking to cultivate pathways toward socio-ecological resilience. Through projects such as the Escuela del Agua, Misión Áurea Terra, and community-led watershed restoration in Lubigará, Origen Circular supports children, youth, families, educators, and local leaders in becoming active stewards of their ecosystems, and participants in the socio-ecological evolution of their territories
