About the Organizations

What we do

The Global Eco-village Network, in French World Network of Eco-villages grouped by region including Africa, promotes the creation of eco-villages that are communities of men living in harmony with their environment in respect of the land.
In the Central African Republic it was created on 05/11/2013 and had the status of association governed by the law n ° 61/233 of May 27, 1961 on March 30, 2016. Involved in the sustainable management of the resources and the environment, it contributes to capacity building of stakeholders in eco-village strategies, to promote intercultural exchange, alternative education, gender mainstreaming, social entrepreneurship for sustainable development and adaptation to climate change with strong expertise in other forest governance processes.
GEN-RCA has expertise in this area through multiple training and capacity building with the MINUSCA Gender Section, the Center for International Development and Training (CIDT) and its traditional technical partner the Center for Environmental Information and Sustainable Development (CIEDD). It has benefited from a project funded by the GLOBAL GREENGRANTS FUND (GGF), currently being implemented, called “Participation of women from Lobaye (M’baĂŻki) to reforms in decision-making bodies: Objectif Agenda 2030” which allowed to technically support the administration, local and indigenous communities for a better understanding of gender mainstreaming through different training and capacity building, facilitating the identification on inquiry of obstacles to women’s participation in decision-making bodies for forest management.

Social Media Intern for GEN International Hours: Up to 20/month, flexible around your schedule and availability Location: Remote, work with Eva Goldfarb Focus: Instagram + LinkedIn (TikTok if you’re into it!) Hi! I’m Eva, and I run social media for GEN International — the global network connecting ecovillages, intentional communities, and regenerative culture-builders across every continent. I’m looking for a co-conspirator to help me tell the stories of the people quietly building the future: off-grid villages in the Philippines, permaculture farms in Senegal, urban cohousing projects in Berlin, elders passing down land wisdom in the Andes. It’s a wildly rich, wildly underrepresented world, and I want more people to fall in love with it the way I have. What you’ll actually do: Dream up and create content for Instagram and LinkedIn (reels, carousels, stories, captions that don’t sound like a corporate newsletter) Dig into our global network and turn your findings into stories people want to share Pitch your own ideas. If there’s a series, a theme, a format, or a corner of the network that lights you up, that’s what I want you to focus on. What we’re looking for: A natural storyteller, someone who can spot the human thread in a project update or a photo from a faraway village Genuinely curious about ecovillages, sustainability, intentional community, regenerative living Self-motivated and communicative; this is a flexible, trust-based role Why this role: This isn’t a “post 3x a week and don’t ask questions” internship. You’ll have real creative freedom to work on what excites you, learn how a global grassroots network tells its story, and build a portfolio full of meaningful, purpose-driven content. Plus you’ll be talking to people living some of the most interesting, intentional lives on the planet. If storytelling for a better world sounds like your kind of fun, let’s talk.
