About me

  • I am curious about ecovillages
  • I do academic research about ecovillages
  • I am looking for an ecovillage
  • I am living in an ecovillage
  • I am a professional that can offer a skill to ecovillages

I’m a social sciences student from Khenchela, Algeria, and someone who spends most of his free time volunteering, whether it’s environmental work, helping out with the Red Crescent, or just being outdoors. I grew up around animals and farm work, and I’m always looking for ways to connect with new people and communities, locally or abroad.

My experience living in community

I’ve lived my whole life in Khenchela, a smaller city in Algeria, close to nature and rural life. My family runs a small farm, so a lot of my daily life has always been tied to that: taking care of animals, working the land, that kind of thing. Outside of that, I’ve stayed pretty active in community life through volunteering, forest clean-ups and tree planting with local environmental groups, and being an on-call volunteer with the Red Crescent, helping with blood donation drives and stepping in during emergencies. I haven’t lived anywhere else yet, but I’ve been part of a tight local network of people who show up for each other when it’s needed, and that’s shaped how I think about community.

My role in the community

I try to be someone people can rely on for real work: clean-up campaigns, Red Crescent blood drives, stepping in during emergencies. I prefer being active on the ground over organizing.

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.
