Mission

​

We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit committed to empowering marginalized girls, women, and Indigenous communities through ecosystem regeneration worldwide. Our work centers on six key UN Sustainable Development Goals: climate action; peace, justice, and strong institutions; quality education; reduced inequalities; life on land; and partnerships for the goals. By leveraging the power of partnerships, creative influencers, nature, science, technology, storytelling, art, film, financial systems, and social movement marketing, we catalyze global action to address critical environmental and social challenges.​

Vision

​

Empowering Indigenous-led and women-led regeneration, our vision is awakening public consciousness, shifting cultural attitudes, and transforming behavior through impactful art, innovation, education, advocacy, and partnerships. We build transformative influence and mobilize social movements to create a more just, equitable, and sustainable world.

Founded in 1994 as a global nonprofit, we are based in Virginia, USA; Acre, Brazil; and West Bengal, India, operating through the Shakti Empowerment Education Foundation (SEEschool) and Ramakrishna Vidyapith. Our foundation has supported the education of over 8,000 students and inspired millions worldwide, achieving over 2 billion impressions through multimedia campaigns, films, and public service announcements. We focus on regenerative, equality-based empowerment, ecosystem preservation, and neurodiversity education, offering vocational training, micro-financing, homeopathic healthcare, anti-trafficking initiatives, and frontline community support for low-income women, children, and marginalized and Indigenous communities.​
