2022 in Review
As 2022 comes to a close, we at Open Future Coalition are reflecting on the progress we’ve made this year.
At the beginning of this year, we set out to advance shared infrastructure; curate and improve best practices and solutions; apply, learn from, and scale prototypes; model new forms of governance and value exchange; and resource and grow a movement of movements.
We are proud of both how we have advanced these aims, and our agility in learning and refining what is truly in service to our growing global community committed to local resilience. By combining diligence with deep listening, we were able to both refine our aims and explore emergent possibilities.
Highlights included:
- The Beta release of the Open Impact platform
- The release of the first interoperable white labels of the Open Impact platform, enabling us to pilot many-to-many network building
- New programming culminating in our inaugural Open Future Forum
- The launch of new bioregional prototypes through the Center for Regeneration
- The advancement of new funding models through Open Future Fund

In the coming year, we look forward to further advancing our efforts innovating social, technical, and financial tools that support our ability to collectively innovate on, resource, and apply solutions to the world’s most pressing issues. Highlights to look out for include the launch of tools for distributed research and media, opportunities for in-person and online convenings, further invitations to engage as members of the Center for Regeneration, and announcement of a few exciting new partnerships.
In the meantime, we are filled with deep, deep gratitude. When people ask us how we do so much with so small of a team, the answer is, we don’t. We strive to live by our own model — leaning on opportunities to bring together collaborators with common goals and strengths and participate in skill and knowledge exchange within our network, knowing we are for more capable together than any of us can be on our own.
Wishing you replenishment for the year ahead,
Kaiti, Jamaica, and the Open Future Coalition team
