Everything that is alive at Ro Dama is an expression of regeneration.
At Ro Dama, nature and people come together in a regenerative dance that brings both us and the Dowr Konnor watershed back to life. And it is not just regeneration of the eco-system that is happening here, but also of ourselves, our communities & towns, Kernow/Cornwall as a whole and Cornish culture.
