Citizen, dad, entrepreneur, commoner, regen (twitter, linkedin, nostr).

I’m building tools for a regenerative future (open collective, citizen wallet) and putting them into practice at the Commons Hub Brussels.

How can we build organizations that regenerate our human & natural resources instead of depleting them? What are the tools that they need? Those are the main questions that I’m exploring.
