Roger Briggs
ROGER BRIGGS co-founded the Planet Project in 2021, a non-profit organization inspired by his book Emerging World (2021). Roger spent his professional career in the public schools as an award-winning physics teacher, team-builder, and program developer, always with an eye toward creating environments that maximized human thriving and performance. His Girls Cross Country teams at Fairview High School won three Colorado State Championships over five years, while his love of the mountains and Nature found expression in rock climbing where he pioneered many cutting-edge first ascents. Since retiring from the public schools, he wrote the book, Journey to Civilization (2013), and founded and grew a local non-profit for public lands stewardship based on deep partnerships between local governments, businesses, and the public. Roger now works at the global level serving the Great Transition to a regenerative civilization and planetary culture. The Planet Project has become one of many threads in the emerging global tapestry of people and organizations dedicated to co-creating a flourishing Earth.
