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.

Se pude usar para muchísimas cosas: platos, cazuelas, esculturas, muros, suelos… y también para revoques. Un revoque de barro grueso puede usarse para nivelar una pared irregular, añadir inercia térmica a una pared “ligera” (ej. paja, madera o yeso), para ayudar a mantener una temperatura ideal en la casa; también sirve para regular la humedad dentro de la vivienda. Además, es flexible, agradable de trabajar y da un acabado acogedor y bello a cualquier ambiente. Se adapta con igual facilidad a formas rectas y orgánicas. Es ecológico, saludable renovable, reciclable, y de bajo impacto medio-ambiental. Y encima de todo eso…¡es sumamente hermosa! Descripción del curso: Os invito a venir a conocer las técnicas y conocimientos necesarios para utilizar los revoques de Tierra Arcillosa en cualquier superficie: Paja, piedra, madera/tableros, ladrillos… Recomiendo que asistan los 4 módulos, ya que el conocimiento se va acumulando poco a poco, pero dejo libre la opción de asistirles por separado. —————————————————————————– Módulo 1: Conocer el Barro La Tierra Arcillosa se tiene que combinar con más ingredientes (áridos y fibras) para utilizarlo para revocar. Si no se hace, se agrietará o será débil.
