Seven years ago, Allan Savory delivered his world-famous TED talk on the main stage. That talk has garnered millions of views and brought countless people to this movement, one of whom is Savory’s own Director of Development & Communications.
Just last month, he took to the
stage at TEDxBigSky to deliver an updated take on where this global movement is going, and why grasslands deserve the attention of everyone on this planet, regardless of dietary choice.
We kick off this month’s newsletter with that talk, but
make sure to read the rest. It’s been an action-packed start to 2020… enjoy!

Updates to Savory Hub Accreditation Pathway
In Holistic Management, we are constantly checking our actions against our Holistic Context, monitoring, adjusting, and re-planning as needed.
The process unleashes creativity and potential, and the culture of the Savory Institute and Savory Global Network is one of continual learning. What can we do better next time? What needs to be tweaked, removed? What needs to die to give life to something new?
At the Savory Institute, we are asking these questions all the time. We recently asked ourselves these questions as it relates to the Savory Hub accreditation process (a process that has been in place since the early days of the Savory Institute, so it was due for an update) and it led to a fairly substantial update.
