What we do

The goal is to discover and develop approaches to community living in small groups of 150 people or less that consume less time, money and natural resources than the status quo while producing a higher quality of life, as measured through an app. This data will be shared freely on social media or for non-profit fees in person for the purpose of learning what does and doesn’t work in small communities. In a broader picture, such research over time gathered by an app may help the first 100 people on Mars or the Moon avoid mistakes and copy things that work out particularly well. On earth, it can provide guidance to others wishing to form pockets of sustainable living. These niche-cultures serve as seeds in the larger culture and perhaps 5% of the most successful protocols will make their way back and be adopted over time to the benefit of the larger culture.
We are under process of acquiring land in Costa Rica to develop a developing community for a small group of people. Below are some of the links to our work and goals.

BioconstrucciĂłn de TALLER con carpinterĂ­a de armar

La Escuela de BioconstrucciĂłn Los Guindales propone un aprendizaje practico de bioconstrucciĂłn durante todo el año, en la finca de la ecoaldea Los Guindales (AlgatocĂ­n – Málaga). Para mejorar las instalaciones del proyecto, vamos a construir un taller de carpinterĂ­a. Durante el mes de agosto, lanzamos un llamamiento excepcional para poder avanzar la armadura con madera redonda. Se van a cuadrar troncos, a trazar en el suelo las varias piezas para luego trazar en las piezas mismas las cotas importantes, a cortar las piezas haciĂ©ndoles encajes tradicionales, a montar y a levantar los cinco pĂłrticos previstos. Vamos a seguir la misma organizaciĂłn grupal que solemos tener ; hacemos turnos diarios de cocina, trabajamos de las 8h a las 10h, desayunamos hasta las 11h, y seguimos luego hasta el almuerzo a las 14h. Por la tarde seguiremos trabajando unas dos horas. Paralelamente, estamos cuidando una huerta y tres cabras. Para mas info sobre nuestra rutina y condiciones os dejo el enlace a seguir. https://escueladebioconstruccionlosguindales.wordpress.com/formacion/ AquĂ­ somos un equipo fijo de cuatro personas llevando la escuela. Siembre habrán un mĂ­nimo de dos personas con experiencia para llevar el taller del mes de agosto. TenĂ©is a disposiciĂłn un terreno grande para poner tiendas de campana, tambiĂ©n hay una yurta segĂşn las disponibilidades. Pedimos una aportaciĂłn de 120 euros para el mes entero o 70 euros para dos semanas para cubrir los gastos de comida. Caso tengan cualquier duda, no hesiten en hacĂ©rnosla saber. Pueden contactarnos a travĂ©s de: bi*************************@***il.com
