About me

My regenerative journey began in 2018 with the organisation an animation of specialized courses in the growing field of permaculture. The main purpose of these activities was to improve the relation we have with ourselves, with the other living beings, with mother nature. This process took me to systemic design, agroecology, bioconstruction and community building workshops, discovering how to regain autonomy and freedom, understanding how people can transform the world through their own transformation, myself as first ! Currently living in a community in the south of France named Lou NeĂŻssoun, I joined GEN as ambassador in 2020 and co-organized in 2021 the first Ecovillage Design Education course held in France at Sainte Camelle.
Passionate with the living world, as a permaculture designer I currently work on several innovative projects to experiment regenerative solutions applied to local context. One of them is the seeding of a syntropic agriculture edible forest in a Mediterranean context as a way to address the challenges we are facing regarding water management, food sovereignty, economical resilience, soil erosion and the evolving role of a farmer in a healthy ecosystem. My intention is to keep supporting actions that help humanity to align with the planet’s balances and to allow all life to be respected and valued as is it, a miracle!

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.
