Our community approach centers on the traditional Turkish principle of “imece” – collective work for shared benefit – reimagined through decentralized governance structures. We build regenerative networks that honor both ancient cooperative wisdom and cutting-edge organizational models.
Working directly with farming communities across Türkiye’s agricultural regions, we provide comprehensive transition support including technical training, financial assistance, and market access. Our farmer education programs bridge traditional knowledge with regenerative practices, empowering communities to implement no-till methods, companion planting, and organic pest management while preserving cultural heritage.
Youth engagement drives our expansion strategy. Through partnerships with agricultural universities and rural communities, we create economic opportunities that draw young people back to the land. Our programs combine modern technology training with ecological stewardship, offering pathways to meaningful careers in regenerative agriculture, blockchain development, and cooperative management.
As part of EarthistDAO and the broader Earthist Network, we operate through decentralized governance mechanisms that give every stakeholder a voice in decision-making. Token-based incentive systems reward farmers for implementing regenerative practices, community members for participating in governance, and youth for developing innovative solutions.
Our cooperative model extends beyond individual farms to create regional networks that share resources, knowledge, and market access. This approach strengthens rural economies while scaling regenerative practices across bioregions, demonstrating how traditional cooperative structures can evolve to meet 21st-century challenges.
