re•generation

What re•generation does

re•generation is a Canadian youth-led nonprofit organization, founded in 2019 and headquartered in Montréal, that uses storytelling and digital media to advance clean economy careers and challenge corporate power. Its primary audiences are students, young professionals seeking clean economy careers, and employees advocating for environmental and social change within their organizations, with secondary audiences of employers and NGOs. The organization is collectively led by a team of 11 young people including Managing Director Jennifer St-Laurent, Executive Director Rashmi Prakash, and Co-Founder Gareth Gransaull. It is incorporated as a Canadian nonprofit and operates independently with no parent company or institutional investors disclosed.

re•generation's product portfolio centers on original content and career infrastructure. Documentary output includes 'How To Buy A Country', a 50-minute feature co-produced with Level Ground Productions and scheduled for July 2026 release, and the 'ReWork Your Future' series of six short documentaries profiling changemakers across the clean economy. The 'Discover Clean Careers' sustainability job board covers seven clean economy sectors: Clean Energy, Ecosystem Restoration, Sustainable Food Systems, Impact Investing, Sustainable Mobility, Green Infrastructure, and Circular Economy. The Employee Advocacy Toolkit is a downloadable resource with issue-specific guides across four themes (ecological well-being, human well-being, business ethics, business models and governance), supported by confidential one-on-one coaching delivered via encrypted channels (Signal and Jotform). The Clean Economy Ambassador program is a national network for students and young professionals, run as an annual cohort. Supporting channels include a bilingual website, the 'Down to Earth' Substack newsletter, and active accounts on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn.

As a nonprofit, re•generation funds operations through grants, donations, and organizational endorsements rather than commercial pricing, and all resources are provided free of charge. The go-to-market motion is community-led and event-driven: build a national youth community through the Ambassador program, produce documentary content to shift narratives, and convert audience attention into career, advocacy, and partnership engagement. The organization is geographically scoped to Canada and has not disclosed any commercial revenue, funding rounds, or investor relationships.
