High Level AssessmentHere are some high level questions to ask in order to assess the health of the community and its impact on the surrounding area. This Holistic Community Ecosystem Assessment refers to the cultural ecosystems as well as the biological ecosystem. This is your Impact Assessment.
What is holistic ecosystem management for? Your community is built and you are trying to refine and improve your success and impact as a community. These assessments will be broken down into 4 ecosystets – internal community health, local community impact, societal integration, and overall regenerative integrity.
-
Internal Community Health
- What are the systems for accountability to the community ideals?
- Managing tasks and roles? Missing anything? Time to add more or different systems/tools/communication styles?
- Avoiding hierarchy, nepotism, and power struggles.
-
Assessing community member happiness
-
Level of turnover in staff, volunteers, members, residents, etc. How long on average each one stays
-
Local Community Impact

- Activism
- Accessibility
-
Community relationships/partnerships – how many organizations are we collaborating with?
-
How many regenerative communities do we actively communicate with?
-
Are we too focused on our own community to participate in local relationships?

Overall Regenerative Integrity
