CAPED–GeminiDT Regenerative Biome Foundation Opens in Banjul in The Gambia
The CAPED–GeminiDT Regenerative Biome Foundation is now open, establishing a new platform for advancing land restoration, community resilience, regenerative agriculture, clean water, education, innovation and sustainable economic opportunity in The Gambia.
Created through collaboration between CAPED and GeminiDT Biome™, the Foundation is designed as a not-for-profit, public-benefit organization. Its purpose is to help Gambian communities develop practical, locally led solutions that restore natural systems while creating pathways to employment, entrepreneurship and long-term economic participation.
Operating under the slogan “Greatness from the Ground Up,” the Foundation will focus on programs that connect environmental restoration with measurable benefits for farmers, young people, women, entrepreneurs and local communities.
Initial areas of focus are expected to include:
Regenerative agriculture and living-soil restoration
Mangrove, wetland and watershed protection
Farmer training and field demonstrations
Youth skills development and green employment
Community-based enterprise and innovation
Clean-water and food-security initiatives
Ecological measurement, reporting and verification
Development of a future regenerative Biome Center
The Foundation will also introduce the GRU — GeminiDT Regenerative Unit, a land-based measurement framework intended to represent one participating acre within an approved regenerative program. The principle is straightforward: One GRU • One Acre.
A GRU is intended to help organize project participation, field activity and measurable ecological outcomes. It should not be described as a cryptocurrency, carbon credit, investment security or guaranteed financial asset unless and until the required technical validation, governance, legal documentation and regulatory approvals are completed.
“The future of regeneration must be built with communities, not imposed upon them. The CAPED–GeminiDT Regenerative Biome Foundation will bring together local leadership, science, technology and practical implementation to help restore land, strengthen food systems and create meaningful economic opportunity from the ground up,” said Steve Tsuruda, Founder and CEO of GeminiDT Biome.
The Foundation will pursue partnerships with communities, farmers, educational institutions, development organizations, members of the Gambian diaspora, philanthropic supporters and responsible private-sector participants.
Its operating model will maintain a clear distinction between the Foundation’s public-benefit mission and GeminiDT Biome’s separately owned intellectual property, technology, Carbon Operating System, measurement methodologies and licensed services. This separation is important for transparent governance, accountability and institutional credibility.
The opening represents the beginning of the Foundation’s development—not the completion of its mission. Programs, funding commitments, project sites and measurable targets will be announced only as they are formally approved and documented.
