Partnerships

No meaningful restoration happens alone.

The work gets stronger when science, community, capital, enterprise, technology and stewardship meet.

The Partnership Model

We help good people find each other.

Science

Researchers and institutions who understand the ecosystem.

Community

People who live, work and depend upon the place.

Capital

Resources capable of moving good ideas into reality.

Enterprise

Businesses that can help make a model durable.

Technology

Tools that help monitor, understand and improve the work.

Stewardship

A commitment to leave the system healthier than we found it.

Atlantis as an Example

A network is built through relationships.

The Atlantis planning materials describe institutional relationships, research conversations, grant pathways and operating support as part of the infrastructure around its sites. Baba's role is to help relationships become useful without pretending to own or control the work.

A Simple Test

Does this relationship make the work more possible?

If the answer is yes, it is worth exploring. If not, we do not need to force it.

Make an Introduction

Know someone we should meet?

Scientists, operators, community leaders, researchers, investors, educators, technologists and people with an unusual connection to a place are all part of the conversation.
