“This gathering of human and non-human beings has never happened before and will never happen again.” - Charles Eisenstein, GEN Online Summit.
As GEN celebrated our 25th year in 2020, and all the contributions that lead us here, no one could imagine the uncertainty the world would face. While gathering the stories and data to showcase our accomplishments for the year, we felt an enhanced sense of gratitude for the abundance within our members and collaborators. As a network and organisation, our resilience was tested and proven, and like a diverse ecosystem, we navigated challenges with creativity, flexibility, and solidarity. We were truly pressed to practice the ecovillage principles, particularly "clarifying vision and higher purpose" as well as "listen to the feedback of the world." We believe our Annual Report reflects this and are pleased to share it with you here.
Our Vision and Mission remain the same, as do many of our core frameworks. And we remain open to evolving how we serve these, how we work together, and how we understand our impact. Read the invitation for celebration from our passionate and committed President of the Board. Read the reflection and re-focusing from the Focus Area Directors of the GEN International team. Notice how we exceeded some of our targets (particularly the number of communities we reach out to and the number of online learning participants we engaged with). And learn how our restructuring process is re-shaping our work.
In a year of restricted travel, we maintained our global focus through collaborating with partners in all regions, through the Twinning Project, Hildur Jackson Award, BLAST, GAMER, Green Economy, Ecovillage Transition in Action, Ecovillage Schools, and Research. We continued to showcase stories from the network in our Online Summit. And our volunteers and Ambassadors networks grew and strengthened.
You can also read about our priorities for 2021 and join us on the journey back 25 years, to celebrate all that shaped who we are today. As always, we invite you to dive into each of the regions' highlights as well. Representatives from GEN Africa welcomed well-earned recognition for several awards in 2020 and infused energy into the Pan African Ecovillage Development Programme. CASA Latina held an enriching and regenerative annual meeting and embraced online learning opportunities with several collaborative education projects. GEN Europe followed suit in the online world, creatively adapting their in-person gathering to an incredible array of online engagement workshops, as well as launching a Connect and Create course and Communities of Hope documentary.

Exercise benefits cognitive function in several ways. It improves blood flow to the brain, bringing more oxygen and nutrients while clearing out metabolic waste. Regular exercise prevents neurological diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's by reducing vascular risk factors. It also promotes healthy aging by slowing cognitive decline. Exercise reduces stress levels and improves mood through increased growth factors in the brain. It fosters neuroplasticity, allowing the brain to grow new connections and neurons. Both cardiovascular and resistance training are beneficial, though combining the two provides the strongest effects. Moderate exercise of at least 30 minutes performed several times a week can help optimize cognitive health.

Your smile is beautiful.
Let’s be honest. Maintaining that beautiful smile is not an easy task. It is more than brushing and flossing. Sometimes, you might encounter dental issues that need special dental care. These issues can range anywhere from misalignment of the jaw to pain in the root of teeth.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

2. Campaign’s progress leads to public roll-out, big goal for June (continued)
Pergolin made the public announcement
during a fitting occasion: the re-opening
celebration for our newly rebuilt campus
at Mullica Hill, whose reconstruction
was made possible by the Campaign
for Bancroft. (The campus also got a
new name –The Bancroft Lakeside
Campus at Mullica Hill – to better
reflect its picturesque setting.)
The campaign has already raised $4.1
million in gifts and pledges, which
have supported multiple far-reaching
initiatives. Our goal is to raise at least
$6 million by June 30, 2013.
