Willow Berzin: Co-Facilitator, Melbourne
A regeneration designer Willow works at the intersection of human potential and collective impact for thriving futures.
After a couple of decades cutting her teeth in London & Europe working as a designer & creative director for the likes of the BBC, Apple, Google and with startups, 6 years ago she threw in the towel on old economy work, searching for a way to be useful for the climate & biodiversity emergency.
Willow has since been exploring designing with living systems and Participatory Experience Design (PX), is writing a picture book from her journey of the past 5 years as the Chief Assembler building Coalition of Everyone, is co-CEO of Earth Equity Network, designer in residence at Regen Melbourne, and co-convener of the Regen Places learning network.
She is curious about the evolution of consciousness, and how to help support more people finding their roles building the next economy.
If she were T-shirt or billboard, it would likely say something like “Why are we alive now? We’re here to remember together we are a keystone species; we can give back more than we take for the healing and regeneration of humanity and Earth.”
