Inhabit and the Great Green Corridor

A conversation with Luca Urbano, co-founder of Inhabit, exploring ecological corridors as living infrastructures that reconnect fragmented landscapes in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia. He describes these corridors as pathways that allow key species like jaguars to move freely, restoring ecological balance. The conversation frames corridors through systems thinking—as networks that exchange energy and information, capable of regenerating when protected.A central shift emerges from ownership to stewardship, where people act as caretakers and advocates for nature. Luca introduces pagamento, a practice of giving back to the land through intention and reciprocity, supporting both ecological and cultural renewal. Inhabit extends this approach through tools like blockchain-based stewardship, enabling global participation in protecting biocultural territories.If you want to go deeper, you can explore more about their work at inhabit.one, and also follow the parallel thread of Soilify soilify.it, an emerging project mentioned in the episode that translates soil data into a sensory experience to foster emotional connection with the earth.
