What we do

“Give a man/woman food and you feed him/her for a day. Teach a woman/man how to build and maintain a community and you feed her/him for a lifetime”
Gathering 144 people who want to be a part of building a stable, fully self-sustaining and self-sufficient community (a.k.a. life-boat for the unfolding climate change & the associated societal crises). This peaceful community will be built upon a foundation of love, spirituality, mercy, generosity, sensible & reasonable tolerance, intelligence, and wisdom.
Many people in this world are trapped in the rat race. They don’t have the time to search out information about the world around them, to understand the repeating mistakes of humanity. So they end up making the same mistakes over and over, repeating the same cycle of destruction & suffering. Since the goal of the Community ARK Project is to rescue people; we have a responsibility to make sure that those we rescue comprehend humanity past mistakes, and commit themselves to avoid repeating the same mistakes that bring destruction & suffering.
There’s an old proverb: “If you save a life, you are responsible for it.” Suppose you save a child life by adopting her/him from a neglecting orphanage. But you did not take the responsibility to raise that child into a responsible, gentle, and kind adult. Instead, that child grows up without guidance to become a murderer. Well you haven’t done a good deed, but rather you have perpetuated evil & destruction. The road to hell are paved with good intentions. Good intention is not enough, it must be implemented with intelligent & responsible actions.
If you are interested in becoming a part of this grass-root efforts, we encourage your inquiry.
The music videos shared below, perfectly represent our goal.

How to join

First, contact us via email. Then answers our preliminary questions(if applicable) when we reply, to help us determine how best to communicate with you. Once we have your answers, we will then proceed with an in-depth explanation of how our community will function, so everyone will be on the same page. Please be aware, it will require a lot of reading and critically evaluating the information presented. This is done to filter out wolves in sheep clothing, to protect the community.
Peaceful, gentle & kind people tend to have patience, while selfish, greedy & violent people are impatient. They are impatient because their minds have been programed with the “time is money” mentality. They are always in a rush, always in a hurry, always desiring immediate gratification. They are always asking questions expecting short immediate answers, instead of patiently spending the time to read, re-read, or explore to find answers for themselves.
After you are sufficiently informed, you can then make the choice of your own free-will to join this community project or not.

Artosilla, 1999

II Encuentro de Ecoaldeas En el II Encuentro Estatal de Ecoaldeas, celebrado en Artosilla en agosto de 1999, se avanzĂł considerablemente en la creaciĂłn de una red de ecoaldeas, al permitir que nos conociĂ©ramos unos cuantos colectivos que, en diferentes lugares de la geografĂ­a española, estamos trabajando en esta lĂ­nea. Sin embargo, por ser todavĂ­a pocos y por hallarnos todavĂ­a en una fase muy inicial, en la Ăşltima asamblea celebrada en dicho Encuentro se decidiĂł mantener de momento una estructura de coordinaciĂłn mĂ­nima —que recaĂ­a por otra parte en la Carrucha Cultural— y esperar que el movimiento de ecoaldeas se fuera consolidando en todo el territorio español antes de crear una verdadera red. TambiĂ©n se decidiĂł, que dado que la palabra “ecoaldea” es de uso muy reciente, y algunos colectivos ya llevan trabajando en lĂ­neas similares desde hace años, se podrĂ­a ampliar la red a otro tipo de comunidades sostenibles, como colectividades rurales, comunas urbanas y rurales, municipios o pueblos ecolĂłgicos, cooperativas de viviendas, comunidades de desarrollo personal, etc., siempre que se hallen predispuestas a avanzar en la consecuciĂłn de los requisitos mĂ­nimos de ecoaldea. No existen ecoaldeas perfectas, ni en España ni en ningĂşn otro paĂ­s europeo, y por tanto no se trata de que los colectivos que quieran unirse a la red ibĂ©rica de ecoaldeas lo sean completamente. Basta con que haya en ellos una intenciĂłn de avanzar en el desarrollo de comunidades sostenibles. En Artosilla, los siguientes colectivos constituyeron el germen de la futura Red IbĂ©rica de Ecoaldeas: • Cooperativa de viviendas ValdepiĂ©lagos (Madrid) — so********@***ix.net • AsociaciĂłn La Osa (Asturias) —as********@***sa.org • Municipio ecolĂłgico de Amayuelas de Abajo (Palencia) — ce****@********os.es • AsociaciĂłn La Semilla (Cádiz) — gr*****@***oo.es • Proyecto de CooperaciĂłn Nueva Tierra (Sevilla) — qu*****@*******ok.net • Instituto de Permacultura Montsant (Tarragona) — wa**@**ac.es • A
