What we do

Vamos sonhar e construir um novo mundo juntos? Imagine um pedaço de terra na beira do Rio de Contas, na Costa do Cacau, na Bahia. Tente imaginar a exuberância da Mata Atlântica nessa região que ainda segue preservada. Cachoeiras, trilhas, cacauzeiros, banho de rio. Agora pense num grupo de pessoas buscando construir, nesse local, uma realidade que os permita estar em comunhão com a natureza e compartilhar o dia-a-dia em comunidade. Essa é a Comunidade Aldeia. Atualmente, somos quatro famílias residentes e uma média de 20 voluntários trabalhando e aprendendo no local. E estamos procurando outras famílias que queiram compartilhar a construção desse sonho conosco. Buscamos famílias interessadas em desenvolver soluções criativas para uma vida inspirada e integrada à natureza; Pessoas flexíveis e capazes de se adaptar para viver em um ambiente natural, menos previsível que os centros urbanos; Indivíduos com iniciativa, que tentem resolver problemas proativamente e com independência; Pessoas que tenham habilidades para construir uma vida no mato ou vontade e disponibilidade de aprendê-las; E mães e pais interessados em desenhar uma educação diferente para os pequenos ao seu redor, compartilhando os cuidados das crianças com outras famílias e colaborando para uma experiência de Educação Livre. Se sentiu chamado pela abundância de possibilidades que esse sonho oferece e quer construí-lo aqui conosco? Envie-nos uma mensagem.

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.

Transformational Communities of Tomorrow - free live stream

Join Ken Wilber and Doshin Roshi via live streaming, as they honour the gifts of the transformational eco-communities of today, recognise some of the challenges they are currently facing and explore what the medicine to heal and evolve could be from an Integral perspective. Sign up here to join the free live stream. Ken Wilber and Doshin Roshi Honouring the role communities have played in the transformation of the world up until now – the movement from modernity to postmodernity. Highlighting the pain and struggles within these organisations – beliefs, values and preferences that contribute to a sense of ‘stuckness’. Creating curiosity about the medicine needed to support a breakthrough to the next level – what might communities of tomorrow look like once they have embodied this medicine? Sharing inspiration and support to expand the potential of each community – deepening the transformational impulse around the world. Join in as this event will be streamed live to communities, holistic centres and ecovillages around the world. The transformational and eco communities of today grew out of the 1960s era that has been called postmodern—the gifts of multiculturalism, diversity, inclusion, sensitivity, eco awareness. Some of the struggles include co-creating healthy hierarchies, effective decision making, attracting younger people, financial sustainability. Ken Wilber outlines the significance of this rare dialogue offered as a free live broadcast to post modern communities around the world, one that focuses on growing up, waking up, cleaning up and showing up: “The postmodern communities of transformation, including Findhorn, did two profoundly important things: in relative truth, they introduced an enchanted world instead of the disenchanted wasteland; and in ultimate Truth, they simpl
