Solutions Hub  BETA

Are you ready to join with people all over the world to create lasting solutions? You’ve come to the right place. THRIVE Solutions Groups are self-organizing all over the planet and now you can search for groups in your area, or start your own. THRIVE groups share best practices with each other, so you can benefit from each other’s experiences and progress. 

The THRIVE Solutions Model is based on a whole-system approach comprised of twelve interconnected sectors that cover the primary areas of human endeavor. By identifying key problems in each of these Sectors and coming up with solutions that are good for all of them, we will avoid having unforeseen impact in a Sector seemingly distant from the immediate concern at hand. Both the structure and process of the model are based on nature’s design principles.

The THRIVE Solutions Model is designed to keep people in a given community informed about all that is happening beyond their own area of focus, and to facilitate the sharing of needs and resources – locally, nationally and globally – so that on any issue a full range of participation is easy to come by.

Please sign up on our email list to receive updates about and participate in the THRIVE Movement.

Benefits of Industrial Hemp
The US is the only industrialized nation that prohibits growing industrial hemp despite the fact that it’s highly profitable; can be used to make more than 25,000 products, including paper, fiber, plastics, textiles, and rope; and does not require the use of herbicides or pesticides to grow it. Many communities are aiming to make industrial hemp legal, which would benefit farmers, our economy, and the environment.
