Review for Bioneers, San Francisco, CA, USA
I have attended Bioneers on two separate occasions, once on behalf of the non-profit that I represented and most recently as a presenter at The Moving Images Film Festival. Both times I took full advantage of the amazing line up of innovative and inspirational speakers. I am truly impressed by the vision and integrity that flows into this wonderful annual event- the "feel good" gathering of the year as I often refer to it. It is great to see science fused with intention and intuition. I am also very grateful for the focus on Native American culture and wisdom that is woven throughout the weekend's seminars, films, and events. All too often I find that this important voice is left out of other such mainstream events. Overall, I think this is a phenomenal organization and annual event and i look forward to attending again in the future and will certainly be promoting Bioneers to both friends and colleagues.

I have certainly gained a lot of valuable information and new ideas for innovative solutions to some of the environmental issues that are currently facing the planet and humanity.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I would love to see more incentive for local youth and student groups to become involved in the workshops and fill screenings throughout the weekend. Perhaps an educational initiative already exists, but the theaters are often sparsely filled (presumably due to the plethora of choices of great speakers) and it seems that this would allow a perfect opportunity for local students to fill the vacant seats in some capacity. The second suggestion I would make is cutting out all meat in the food selection.
