Unity Aspiring Ecovillage

Beyond the summit! All welcome! Let’s gather again for an informal afternoon at my home to bring the amazing Communities for Future Online Summit 2020 into our local context. As per Kosha Joubert’s encouraging words, when I set up the event hub: ‘life knows where it wants to flow’, a participant of our first meeting two weeks ago has kindly suggested to bring a ‘watermark meditation’ – for more info see instagram @sonderflow. We can also screen interviews, talk, connect with each other …. share tea and biscuits … see what we find amongst us – resources, dialogue, enthusiasm, the courage to connect!

Los visitantes pueden ver estas innumerables iniciativas, hacer preguntas a sus desarrolladores y decidir por sí mismos si el sistema de diseño de permacultura tiene relevancia para los desafíos que enfrentamos y para crear comunidades que sean resistentes frente a impactos indeseables e imprevisibles. Un día en cual los proyectos como huertas, jardines, fincas, granjas entre otros abren sus puertas para ofrecer la oportunidad de experimentar la Permacultura y aprender, se organizan charlas, talleres educativos, películas, entre otros eventos. ¡Animamos a todos los que practiquen la Permacultura a cualquier escala a celebrar!.
