What wo do
The Essentials We Embrace
We are dedicated to working in harmony with natural systems, promoting sustainable practices that preserve and enhance biodiversity. By integrating ecological principles into our initiatives, we foster a balanced coexistence with the environment, ensuring that our actions contribute positively to the natural world.
The Essentials We Embrace
Achieving true sustainability requires a dynamic interplay between personal and systemic transformation. We recognize that individual growth and systemic change are interlinked; personal development fosters broader systemic shifts, while systemic changes support deeper personal transformation. Our approach emphasizes that personal and systemic evolution are mutually reinforcing, creating a more resilient and equitable society.
The Essentials We Embrace
Embracing adaptability and fluidity, we believe in the power of shapeshifting to navigate the complexities of our ever-changing world. This pillar represents our commitment to continuous learning, innovation, and transformation. By being open to change and willing to evolve, we can better respond to emerging challenges, forge new paths, and inspire others to do the same.
The Essentials We Embrace
We are committed to reimagining human-nature interactions to move beyond traditional models of extraction and preservation. This pillar encourages innovative and reciprocal engagement with the environment, integrating both contemporary and Indigenous wisdom. By redefining these relationships, we unlock new pathways for living and innovating that promote regenerative practices and create a sustainable future.

Our Regenerative Circle
Educators
Architects
Changemakers
We work with the educator community across different schools, mainly in China, and seek to bridge connections with educators overseas. We run teachers’ retreats, train sustainability leads for teachers, and create a community where educators can share their journey towards a more ecological way of being and bring regenerative principles into their classrooms.
In collaboration with Architecture 2030, we organize regenerative architects workshops in China, Malaysia, and Indonesia. These workshops aim to bring regenerative principles to the architectural world and support architects seeking a transition by providing a community, courses, and materials.
We are building a decentralized ChangeMakers community for them to connect with each other. We provide toolkits for well-being and cultivating ChangeMaker pathways, helping them find connections and bringing different communities together.

We’re Passionate About
Bound for the wild.
The earth is our home, its wildest corners our muse. We design and lead sustainability-themed expeditions to diverse physical, ecological, and human geographies: Antarctica, Greenland, Nepal, Bhutan, Iceland, Qinghai–Tibet, and more.
We design and teach tailored K–12 sustainability curricula to foster the next generation of leaders and decision-makers. Experiential learning is our focus, whether in the classroom or in the wild.
We work with stakeholders and policymakers to innovate and promote environmentally conscious policies. Our initiatives include sustainable tourism, polar conservation, and biodiversity.
We believe in the power of the arts to inspire action and change. From the literary to the sonic to the visual, our collection comprises the work of young children, grassroots communities, and established artists alike.
Future + Kuching: Wisdom Weaving in Regenerative Design
Future Positive, or Future+, is a programme co-designed by Architecture 2030 and Wildbound, with a mission to enable the emergence of a regenerative architectural and place design hub in Asia.
WildBound originated in China and now operates in the UK and beyond, engaging with communities in Southeast Asia and Europe. Our programs reflect a blend of Eastern traditions from Buddhism, Daoism, and Confucianism, integrated into contemporary discussions around ecology and ecological civilization.
