What we do

La Rivoire is a living place, of respect and connection to Nature, of experimentation, which we can pass on to future generations.
The collective aims to create an agroecological center that allows cooperation, exchange and development of people and activities linked to the center.
We are engaged to
– Propose concrete solutions to adapt and fight against climate change.
– Develop non-polluting agriculture that respects its environment.
– Maintain activities located in lively rural areas.
– Nurture social ties for the well-being of people.
– Renew agricultural generations .
Our collective is committed to:
MODELING AN ECOSYSTEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS ENVIRONMENT
Permaculture is created through the unity of the place, humans, actions.
TAKING CARE OF THE EARTH, HUMANS, AND MAKING RESOURCE SHARING LIVE
Choose rules that facilitate communication between people and place nature at the center of our actions.
BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC MODEL
Develop added value to ensure a form of economic independence from a resilient model.

Gaia Ashram Internship

The Pioneers of Gaia Ashram , 5th of July– 2nd of August 2015 The Gaia Ashram Internship is a one month program on Ecovillage Design, Permaculture and Deep Ecology. The internship will be a holistic participatory learning experience & process. Interns will experience being part of the Gaia Ashram Community and we will live together for one month at– Gaia Ashram-. At Gaia Ashram we belief in holistic learning that balances the head, hands & heart. Gaia Ashram encourages participatory learning & values the power of community in holding the learning space. We design the daily & weekly structure of the internship and of our lives here based on these values and principles. Theoretical learning (Head) The theoretical sessions will be participatory and interactive. It will cover the 4 keys of Ecovillage Design Education (Social, Economical, Ecological and Worldview inspired by Gaia Education). Each week will cover one of the Ecovillage Design Keys and integrated into this we will be introduced to Permaculture Design & Deep Ecology in terms of philosophy, movement and personal experiences. Overall, We will have a maximum of 2-3 hours of theory per day on the session days, to also create lots of space for practical experiential learning. See more details of the key content below. Practical learning (Hands – on) For the hands – on practical learning we will be developing the Gaia Ashram’s farm and restoring nature on the Gaia Ashram land using permaculture strategies & techniques that are appropriate for the Rainy Season & the land and its local context. The hands-on work will focus on Gardening work i.e. developing the vegetable gardens, planting seeds & seedlings, transplanting, propagation of plants, making composts, growing and maintaining a Food Forest, planting green manures, planting lots of trees, planting seasonal crops. Apart from the Gardening we will also will be doing some natural building which mostly will focus on creating natural finishes usi
