Food System Vision Prize
SecondMuse partnered with The Rockefeller Foundation and IDEO, taking on the role of researching, developing and implementing the Food System Vision Prize, a program that invited companies, communities, governments and universities worldwide to envision and propose a regenerative and nourishing food system for 2050. Through thoughtful and inclusive engagement, we received over 1,300 submissions from 119 countries, involving more than 500 government entities in formal and informal capacities.
Regenerative Monterey
Stakeholders in Monterey County were working in silos to address housing, agriculture, and sustainability challenges. Lacking a collective strategy, they struggled to connect efforts across sectors. Through research and community-centered design, SecondMuse helped regional organizations identify practical, community-driven programs to generate jobs, attract investment, cut carbon emissions, boost biodiversity and establish Monterey as California’s first living model of a regenerative economy.
