What future plans does Prof. Xak GeoCOMPASS-Visions have for expanding the EcoSTEM educational framework?

We have big, soil-under-our-fingernails plans for EcoSTEM.edU and the StarSCOUTS framework, all rooted in that Brainforest-eX⁴ cycle of Exploration, Experience, Examination, Excellence.

Near term, we are focused on:

1. Expanding youth StarSCOUTS “living lab” sites modeled on the permaculture lab you saw
2. Deepening regenerative curriculum: agroforestry, indigenous science, wildlife corridors, zero-grid systems
3. Creating more field-based media (like the Supergrow series) as open learning resources

Mid term, we aim to:

1. Train local mentors and eco-guides so communities can run their own labs
2. Build partnerships with schools, scouts, and youth groups to embed EcoSTEM.edU modules
3. Prototype mobile “Pop‑Up Permaculture Labs” for rural and coastal villages

Longer term, the vision is a distributed GeoCOMPASS network of youth-led, community-rooted ecoSTEM hubs, all sharing data, stories, and designs to regenerate their own “brainforests” and bioregions.

Which part of that future are you most curious about: youth programs, curriculum, or community-scale projects?
