What we do

Munksøgård is situated near Roskilde on Zeeland just half an hour by train from Copenhagen. The community’s focus is on finding solutions to living in ways that are environmentally sustainable together with people from different backgrounds.
Munksøgård sonsists of 100 houses divided into 5 groups of two-storey buildings each situated around a farmhouse which acts as the common house for eating together and hosting social events. The different groups are composed of different types of ownership and occupants. 20 of the houes are owned, 20 are for rent, 20 are co-operative flats, 20 are youth apartments (under 31 years old) and 20 are for seniors (over 50 years old). Every group has common spaces and rooms for guests, for children to play in and a dinning room. In addition
There is also an area of 24 hectares around the village used for organic farming. This therefore makes it the largest ecological building project in Denmark and the first “mainstream” ecological project.

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.
