Context

AI TRANSLATION OF OLD 2020 FR TEXT – 2024 04 18

We are currently witnessing, at the global level, the regression of democratic institutions, the dehumanizing effects of neoliberalism and the accelerated destruction of our ecological systems. Such an environment is conducive to distress, cynicism and a worrying feeling of widespread helplessness. At the same time, an ever-growing movement of social innovations is emerging to address these challenges, integrating old and new methods to better organize human life. This movement transforms culture and generates new philosophies and social practices that could, with the right help, transform into truly alternative social structures.

From this context emerges the need to create sustainable spaces where the precursors of tomorrow’s worlds can come and co-develop emerging human systems within holistic and nourishing communities.

 

Our Mission

1. To help nurture the emergence of powerful and resilient support communities for those cultivating a sustainable culture for the 22nd century.

2. To build a sustainable structure that can self-scale in a distributive network, such that it aids in the development of an eco-symbiotic culture for the 22nd century

Our Vision

1. We forsee a decentralized global network of support spaces, that empower the change actors in their present situations, so we can successfully navigate through a 21st century bottleneck and arrive at a thriving 22nd century.

2.  Planting seeds for a future culture: An initiative that benefits those involved now, while also labbing out social technologies that push the needle forward and contribute to the evolution necessary for Humanity & the Biosphere to survive.

Values

 

 

  • Eco-synergy: This suggests a focus on leveraging ecological principles and practices to create synergies between different components of the project, possibly emphasizing sustainable resource management and efficiency.
  • Contribute to the common good: This indicates a commitment to benefiting the broader community or society rather than pursuing narrow self-interest. The project may prioritize social impact and collective well-being.
  • Vulnerability as a place of power: This value suggests an emphasis on openness, authenticity, and resilience. The project may encourage vulnerability and transparency as means of fostering trust, empathy, and connection within the community.
  • Cogenerative relationships: This implies a focus on cultivating collaborative, mutually beneficial relationships where participants co-create value and generate positive outcomes together. The project may emphasize partnerships, co-design, and shared decision-making processes.
  • Focus on regenerative potential : This suggests a belief in the capacity for renewal, growth, and regeneration, both ecologically and socially. The project may prioritize regenerative practices that restore and enhance natural and human systems over time.
