Welcome to the And Now What Community!

Thank you for having the courage to consider joining us! And thanks for understanding as we navigate a change here.

We’re moving! Please come with us!

Neil and Anne have collaborated with the Design School for Regenerating Earth for several years now. There we have found a rich and vibrant community of practice very much aligned with our ANW intentions and in the embodiment of that intent!

Our deep alignment around collapse acceptant bioregioning as a response to collapse has unlocked synergies and potentials that we could not have achieved alone. To grow this mutually assistive community the founders and stewards of the Design School, Joe Brewer and Penny Heiple, kindly host a Space for us in their Mighty Networks platform.

In February 2026 we invited the 260 plus people in our ANW Courageous Community on Mighty Network to consider joining us there. The And Now What Community Space in the Design School is ready to receive you with a warm welcome, some (free) events, and beautiful content.

If you do wish to join us you will leave this web-page via the link and instructions provided below.

Before you make the leap, here is what you’ll need to know:

The Design School joining fee is a meagre 50 US dollars a year (this goes to a fund helping members organise activities on the ground).

For that amount here’s what you’ll receive:

• Our work and offerings as they are delivered in 2026;
• Immediate access to the many benefits and resources of the Design School (including our previous work there), and a growing and vibrant global community of praxis, with many local hubs;
• The 2026 Learning Journey ‘Regenerating Earth through Collapse’, led by Joe, where Neil and Anne will be hosting the Integration Sessions in the intervening weeks (Starts March 17, 2026, no extra cost); and
• A Welcome Event (on March, 5 – save the date, and RSVP), and a (free!) series of Courageous Conversations.

And this is for starters… more to come!

So, if this sounds like what you are looking for, then

This is how you join us – it’ll only take you 5 minutes of your time:

1) If you’re not yet a member of the Design School, please first sign up – and choose ‘a plan’ of 50 US dollars a year (or more, if you want to support the community).

Once you’ve created your account, you will land in the Welcome and Orientation space of the Design School. It’s very important to take the time to do the orientation series so you understand how to navigate the platform.

2) Join the ANW Space by following these steps:

Locate the ANW space in the Community Spaces area of the school. Scroll down in the main menu (left-hand side on a computer/laptop, main screen on the mobile app) until you find the Community Spaces collection. Click on the title “Community Spaces” to open a screen where you can look through and join all the spaces of the Collection. You’ll find the ANW space there.

Neil and I would be grateful and honoured to welcome you, and look forward to meeting you online soon, in ways we were sadly unable to achieve in our own network to date.

So, will you consider joining us there when we move houses? We hope so!
