On October 28th, 2024, Generation Restoration e.V. organized a roundtable with 17 participants from various organizations online around a key question:
Have you ever wondered where to stay if your home country becomes ground for conflict? Finding refuge has unsettling connotations of uneasiness, survival, and repression of one’s livelihood. Suddenly, we have realized, that conflict might not only happen on the African continent. They can happen anywhere. Hence, we all might turn refugees. Restoring dignity for those already living in settlements and starting to foresee new concepts to prevent these connotations from irreversible materialization needs exploration now. What if we transform refugee camps into places of hope?
On August 8th, 2025, around 25 participants from NGOs, research institutions, international organizations, and community-based initiatives came together for a new edition of the Generation Restoration roundtable. The guiding question this time:
In Northern Uganda, Ghetto Research Lab and the Uganda Permaculture Consortium are turning food insecurity into resilience through agroecology and community leadership.
How do we move from scaling regenerative solutions to making them a standard in refugee settlements? At our May 2025 Roundtable, experts and community leaders explored the critical role of alignment—with communities and donors alike—to lay the groundwork for lasting change.

On August 19th, 2024, Generation Restoration e.V. organized a roundtable with 30 participants from various organizations at the Social Innovation Academy (SINA) in Mpigi, Uganda. Generation Restoration e.V. aims to actively serve as a bridge builder, connecting and supporting the inspiring initiatives that exist within marginalized groups, including both refugees and host communities. Harnessing the experience of grassroots actors, combining common approaches or objectives, framing those for standard-setting, and – ultimately – approaching international organizations for policy definitions are at the forefront of Generation Restoration e.V’s efforts. «What if we could transform refugee camps into regenerative communities?» The first in-person roundtable marks the beginning of a series of discussions eagerly dedicated to bringing this vision to life. Hence, the question, «What if we could transform refugee camps into regenerative communities?» is not merely preceding its question mark, it is a provocative statement of which its positive effects have been identified and seized to grow by all participants present at the roundtable.
