The Global Ecosystem

URE is building a global ecosystem of connected local ecosystems; linking chapters, stewarded spaces, community partners, and resources across the United States and internationally. By 2036, we aim to develop the relationships and infrastructure needed for BTGNC communities to access land, housing, creative space, capital, community, governance, and opportunity across regions.

The list below represents chapters we are building between 2026 and 2036. Our current chapters are included in the diagram towards the end of the page.

Expansion will happen through relationships, local organizing, partnerships, sustainable infrastructure, and programming.
