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.

We call for people to: – nourish our Ecovillage Laboratory project, – joining the rotating team, or even – co-creating a permanent community here. Especially we are looking for people who have experience living in an Ecovillage or Community and bring expertise in any of the following: Permaculture design, organic gardening, construction and maintenance of green buildings (cob, wood, tree houses, clay), green technology, administration of an NGO (in the Spanish reality), education related to Eco-village living and group process knowledge. In this one week of immersion we wish to get together with the existing team members (4 at present) and potential team members to co-create together in running the Eco-village laboratory. At present, some of our goals and objectives include (but are not limited to): running the Ecovillage Laboratory to provide maximum opportunities for experience of living in a temporary community and learning together; creating workshop facilities to provide a service of cutting edge workshops on different subjects of our focus (Sexuality in community, permaculture and natural building, arts and creativity in nature, spirituality and shamanism, feminine wisdom and balancing of masculine and feminine energies, community building tools); accomplishing building of a cultural centre; and establishing a permanent community on the adjacent land. Bringing your own projects and subjects are very welcome. In the project we developed: – the “Community Mandala” – a game approach for organising the day by day life of community, – the concept of “Ecovillage Laboratories” – providing the infrastructure for process work in the Ecovillage context – “Apparatus communitus creativus” – an interactive tool for flexible administration of community economy (is being developed at the moment) Sharing about what is important for us: – Balancing feminine and masculine aspects in each individual – Sensual contact with nature – Creativity – Spiritual

Wohlstand neu denken – Glück durch Zeit und soziales Miteinander der Generationen. Was können wir von anderen Ländern wie Bhutan u. Südafrika lernen, und in unserer eigenen Kultur neu entdecken und belegen? Wie wollen gemeinsam und generationenübergreifend Wege finden und erforschen, wie wir uns selbstbestimmt und solidarisch in den unterschiedlichen Lebensphasen von der Geburt bis zu Tod kompetent und vertrauensvoll begleiten können. Der Verein Schloss Tempelhof lädt in Zusammenarbeit mit der Solidargemeinschaft Artabana ein, vier Tage lang in ein Feld der Begeisterung, des Spielens und Staunens einzutauchen, um gemeinsam ökologisch nachhaltige, sozial gerechte und sinnerfüllte Projekte zu kreieren und zu verwirklichen. Referenten sind u.a. Ute Scheub, Geseko von Lüpke, Dominik Werner, Tina Cetto, Susanne Hofmeister, Heike Pourian, Ewa Clausen und Katharina Philipp. Info und Anmeldung: www.schloss-tempelhof.de Schloss Tempelhof Tempelhof 3 D-74594 Kreßberg 07957-9239-030 o. -032 se*********@***************of.de
