Explore the Resource Corner: An Exciting Offer from the Abundance Collective

Introducing The Abundance Resource Corner

What assumptions and underlying beliefs do we hold about money and abundance? And how do these assumptions play out in our relationships with finance? Are there reasons to re-examine the circular economy, its dominance, and alternatives? How can we feel abundance amidst a mainstream capital system driven by scarcity, competition, and exploitation?

With hundreds of resources beautifully curated by the Abundance Collective, you will find a space to challenge your own belief system, dive into conscious economics, and explore and learn from diverse enriching knowledge systems—including indigenous wisdom, regenerative practices, alternative capital systems, reciprocity, and gift economies. From nature’s perspective, embrace mindfulness and rethink abundance.

The Resource Corner was made possible by the collaborative efforts of Elena Samsonova, Ako Eyo Oku, and Corina Angelescu.

About the Abundance Fellowship and Collective

The roots of the Abundance Fellowship have to do with the long-standing partnership between ChangemakerXchange, iac-Berlin, and the Bosch Alumni Network, as well as the contributions made by Corina Angelescu as a lead facilitator and community weaver, and Miriam Sweeney as a co-facilitator and partnerships builder. In 2023, while co-moderating the Social Innovation Cluster on the Bosch Alumni Network, Corina and Miriam first prototyped the Abundance Fellowship as an in-depth offering for cluster members.

Following the successful first iteration together with their 17 Abundance Fellows, the group simply followed their intuitions and the energy in the room and decided that the initiative needed to continue. This further led to the formation of the Abundance Collective comprising 8 members including Corina Angelescu as a Steward and 7 abundance fellows from the first generation- Ako Eyo Oku, Amélie Mariage, Cemre Ceren Asarli, Elena Samsonova, Njeke Joshua Egbe, Sumit Arora and Tímea Szöke- who were guided by an intention to deepen their work and support each other as they continue to experiment with various regenerative ideas and practices. The Abundance Collective is now self-organising.

In 2024, the Abundance Fellowship is a stand-alone, community-led initiative. At the same time, they continue to nurture their collaborations with both iac-Berlin and Changemakerxchange and their members.

The Collective and its work are inspired by Robin Wall Kimmerer, Charles Eisenstein, Nate Hagens, Helena-Norberg Hodge, the Ecoversities Alliance, the Greaterthan Collective, and many many more,  and especially grateful to Greta Rossi, Miriam Sweeney, Nick McGirl, Anouk Siegrist, and the entire ChangemakerXchange team for being such a leading voice in the field of meaningful facilitation and community weaving.
