Reginaldo Haslett-Marroquin is the founder of Regenerative Agriculture Alliance, which is an ecosystem of industry leaders, farmer and public interest organizations, food sector businesses and cooperatives, tribes, and elected officials that are working together to scale up regenerative agriculture supply chains.
He's also a lifetime Ashoka Fellow and the author of In the Shadow of Green Man, which tells the story of his life growing up in revolution-torn Guatemala and how it led him to his work in regenerative agriculture.
In this part 1 of our conversation (listen to part 2 in episode 242), Reginaldo sheds light on the dominant western culture's myopic view of poverty; why it's dangerous to presumptively want to help ‘lift’ materially poor communities out of economic poverty while holding an incomplete worldview that is not universal; what the coronavirus pandemic reveals about what wealth really means in the face of a crisis; and more.

Green Dreamer with kaméa chayne explores our paths to collective healing, biocultural revitalization, and true abundance and wellness *for all*.
Curious to unravel the dominant narratives that stunt our imaginations and called to spark radical dreaming of what could be, we share conversations with an ever-expanding range of thought leaders — each inspiring us to deepen and broaden our awareness in their own ways.
