Every year, over 800 farmers, graziers, First Nations land stewards and land managers from around the world congregate at the REGENERATE Conference to build community, share learnings and pioneer regenerative solutions to today’s agricultural challenges.
To support the development of Australia’s next generation of regenerative land stewards, Macdoch Foundation has partnered with US-based organisation, Funders for Regenerative Agriculture (FORA), to enable young Australians to participate in this world-leading forum.
