NATIVA's purpose is to accelerate the transition towards regenerative paradigms.
This is what we dedicate our best energies to.
OUR IMPACT
A DEDICATION THAT LEADS US TO ALWAYS QUESTION OURSELVES
Is what we do enough? What real impact are we making? How can we do better?
We know we’re living through a historic moment full of profound changes. Humanity—and organizations like ours—is venturing into uncharted territory, exploring new ways of working. It’s a journey of innovation and wins, trial and error, progress and setbacks, and sometimes failure.
With this in mind, we constantly ask ourselves these tough questions and strive to become the best version of ourselves. Because if we don’t challenge and evolve ourselves first, how can we expect to transform the whole system?
Our ongoing journey is reflected in the Legacy Reports, which we write and share every year as a Benefit Society—documenting our learning, growth, and impact.
Lo scopo di NATIVA è di accelerare la transizione verso paradigmi economici rigenerativi.
Dalla nostra nascita ci crediamo profondamente, dedicando a questo purpose le nostre migliori energie.
Una dedizione che porta a interrogarci: quello che facciamo è abbastanza? Qual è l'impatto tangibile del nostro operato? Come possiamo migliorarlo?
Sappiamo che stiamo vivendo un momento storico costellato di cambiamenti epocali. L’umanità e le organizzazioni (tra cui la nostra) si dirigono verso territori inesplorati, verso nuovi modelli di funzionamento e hanno davanti un cammino fatto di innovazioni e vittorie, tentativi e sperimentazioni, passi avanti e indietro, e anche fallimenti.
Consapevoli di questo, cerchiamo di rispondere a queste domande e a creare la versione migliore di noi stessi. Perché se non impariamo a metterci in gioco e a evolvere, come possiamo pensare di trasformare un intero sistema?
Il racconto di questa esplorazione vive nei Legacy Report, il documento che scriviamo e pubblichiamo ogni anno in quanto Società Benefit.
