About the Communities

What we do

Our approach utilizes an Eco-social semiotic theory that relates to signs in the world and how they come to derive meaning, which embraces an active, embodied view of perception. The theory proposes that the organisms and the environment in which they live are intertwined to the extent that one shapes the other, and at its most basic level one implies the other.
In relation to human activity, objectives and environments take on multiple layers of social interpretation through the complex and dynamic coupling of individuals to cultural historical forces and their material circumstances
Thus a community museum can offer knowledge about our past through artifacts, the Heritage garden provides us with a living museum which can in turn inspires us to view and learn about the environment comparatively. This in turn reshapes our thinking and awareness about environment conservation for climate change adaptation and mitigation.

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.
