This space is a Knowledge Base dedicated to all things related to ecovillage economy. Here you can find examples of economic models in ecovillages, resources related to community economics, ask questions about regenerative abundance, and much more! Please feel free to share useful resources.

The social dimension of community is often considered to be what makes ecovillages unique: how a group of individuals can come together to collaborate, learn, and co-create something much bigger than themselves. In this space we’re gathering the best resources and information on the social aspect of ecovillages: tools like the CLIPS methodology, tools for governance, conflict resolution and decision-making, and other community-building elements. Can’t find what you’re looking for? Feel free to ask!

Welcome! This is a space for conversation about all things ecovillage-related that don’t fit into any of the other categories.

Are you doing research on ecovillages and intentional communities? Or is there a topic you think should be investigated? Perhaps you’d like to be connected with one of the many students looking to do their undergraduate or Master’s thesis on ecovillages. This is also a space to share links to existing ecovillage research so we can all learn together.

This Forum is a work in progress - help us make it better! Here’s a space to give feedback and help us improve. Tell us what’s missing!

Celebration, art, dance and other forms of creative expression are often embraced as central to thriving human life and communities.
