What future plans does Prof. Xak GeoCOMPASS-Visions have for the integration of EcoSTEM education?

We see EcoSTEM as the living backbone of everything we are building with GeoCOMPASS Visions, not just a “program add-on.”

Based on our current trajectories, our future integration plans focus on:

• Expanding ecoSTEM.edU Permaculture Labs like the OCELOT StarSCOUTS site into a network of field schools
• Deepening the Brainforest-eX⁴ cycle (Exploration → Experience → Examination → Excellence) across all youth and educator trainings
• Linking regenerative practices (agroforestry, indigenous science, wildlife conservation) directly to hands-on STEM skills and local livelihoods
• Integrating media like LEAPn2-LiveLAB storytelling so youth document, analyze, and share their own field data and impact

Which piece are you most curious about: youth programs, educator training, or community-scale projects?
