What we do

Mundo Alto aims to create a community life through the creation of an EcoVillage. This means a group of people/families living on the same land and sharing values and efforts.
Above all, collective life seeks to share human values such as solidarity, construction and exchange of knowledge, mutual support, tolerance. In this way, it aims to deconstruct capitalist and individualist life models, promoting sharing and co-construction — a creative, social, and active process.
The project is the dream of a simple life, connected to nature. Return to the roots, cultivate and eat from the land, drink water from the river and work with meaning and respect. Respect for oneself, one’s rhythm, one’s deep needs and respect for nature, treating it with love in an exchange of positive energies.
The land has 27 hectares and has 2 streams, several waterfalls and wells, paddocks and forest. There is an organic vegetable garden, coffee plantation, bananas and fruit trees.
Each family unit has its own home in defined areas of the land, but participates in community life by contributing their effort in tasks and shared expenses. For example, in maintaining a common house where tools and shared appliances are located (kitchen, construction and gardening tools, etc.); as well as in participating in growing vegetables, raising animals, etc. This way of life also allows sharing common expenses such as internet, taxes, materials to fence the property, …
As a legal entity, Mundo Alto SAS will be the owner of the land, in order to allow for the economic and effective participation of incoming members in the community. After a one-year integration process, governed by community rules and agreements, each person/family will have the possibility to integrate financially into the project by purchasing shares and becoming co-owners of the land, as well as active members with decision-making power in the community.

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.

ENCUENTRO Bioregional de ECOALDEAS

Volvemos a celebrar el Encuentro Bioregional de Ecoaldeas y Comunidades, en la zona Centro. Unos dĂ­as en los que nos juntamos los miembros de la red y nos reencontramos para ofrecer talleres e inspiraciĂłn a los cientos de personas que se acercan. Compartir, contarnos como nos va. Aprender las unas de las otras. El gusto de vernos y celebrar que seguimos aquĂ­. De nuevo nos encontraremos en la Ecoaldea de ValdepiĂ©lagos, organizado por la Ecoaldea y Taller Karuna. Cada Encuentro ha sido una experiencia distinta. Cada lugar una aventura, para quien lo organiza, para quienes acudimos. Talleres de todo tipo, contactos, canciones, exposiciones, risas, abrazos, paseos, reuniones, niñas y niños, juegos, baños, calor, tormentas… el gusto de conocernos, irnos queriendo, el cariño haciendo red. Las cuatro Dimensiones necesarias para construir una ecoaldea o proyecto comunitario: DimensiĂłn Social y comunitaria: En ella abordaremos los criterios sobre los que construir comunidades sanas y equilibradas. Aspectos como los liderazgos, las tomas de decisiones, el activismo social, la comunicaciĂłn no violenta, la gestiĂłn emocional y del poder… DimensiĂłn EcolĂłgica: Agricultura biolĂłgica, la Permacultura, la bioconstrucciĂłn, la huella ecolĂłgica, la huella hĂ­drica, la autogestiĂłn energĂ©tica, el agua… DimensiĂłn EconĂłmica: Encaminándonos siempre hacia la autogestiĂłn de nuestras economĂ­as, trataremos de enunciar y compartir muchas de las prácticas y acciones que podemos establecer para depender menos del capital y defender los derechos de la Tierra , con herramientas y experiencias prácticas… DimensiĂłn Espiritual: Una comunidad es algo más que una suma de individuos. Abordaremos esa dimensiĂłn invisible -pero no por ello inexistente– que ha de conformar ese “espĂ­ritu” presente en cada comunidad o proyecto comunitario… Iremos añadiendo el programa con los TALLERES que se hagan. Por ahora están programados: Por ahora están programados estos talleres y
