Community Experiment in Israel and Palestine

Global Ecovillage Network
  • March 18, 2013

The Peace Research Village Middle East team (PRV-ME), a member of GEN Middle East, is starting a community experiment in March, in which the project invites friends and supporters to live and work together toward the manifestation of the Village.

During March the group is volunteering in the kibbutz, Neot Semadar, in the Negev, deepening the contact between communities and checking possibilities for future cooperation. In April the group will be living, working, and learning Arabic in Eilaboun, in the Galilee. In May the core group will travel to Tamera to attend the Global Love School with Sabine Lichtenfelds.

In the beginning of June the PRV-ME will start six months of a Community Experiment in which the group will grow from seven to twenty people. This time will include participation as a core group in all aspects of life, working together in different mixed teams: fundraising, PR and networking, house-holding, gardening, doing a water project, and nourishing our spirits, minds, and hearts as a community. It will include participation in internal study time, forums, art times, language lessons, intensive courses like Love School, and group journeys to cooperative partners and other communities. It will run from June until the end of November 2013, and will include preparation and participation in an international event (i.e. pilgrimage or music) planned for this Autumn.

The community experiment is open for friends of the project who are familiar already with the group and with the vision of the PRV-ME and who would like to support the manifestation of it. Potential participants are asked to apply by sending an application letter stating their motivations and intentions on professional and ordinary levels, noting possible challenges as a participant of the experiment.
