The project itself is quite unique and the result could be just as revolutionary for humanity as when our stone age ancestors evolved from hunters – gatherers to begin to cultivate the land and become permanent residents.
About our project
Phase I
Fundraising activities
All sort of fund raising activities. Donations from the public. Savings from the participants. Organisations who can contribute to be contacted. Applications for funds from EU projects. Selling products in the online store.
Phase II
Initiating and preparing the land
Starts when we acquired the farmyard, or land, to build the center on. Planning of facilities, houses. Water. Energy. The second phase ends when a certain number of participants are able to permanently live at the center.
Phase III
Getting settled
Open up for applications and accepting residents. The phase is completed when all nessesary tasks in order to maintain the center are covered by the residents. Max number of residents should not be above 120 at any time.
Phase IV
Research and developement
All activites are documented and discussed around made available to the public and published on the web. Media presens. Debate. Seminars. Spreading and exchaninging experiences. Improving the processes at the center.
Benefits from our work
ZERO waste-vision
“The community without garbage” is a part of the vision where everything that comes with what we consume should be re-used or re-cycled. Recycled to serve a purpose. Involves smart constructions from packages and plastcs and much more. All work is documented and reported monthly available to the public to follow and discuss around, all waste is weighted and the goal is to every time have less waste, until the ZERO-garbage goal is reached.
Selfmantaining – energywise
The permaculture should strive to be able to maintain itself energy-wise. By solarpanels, earth-heat, passiv constructions. smart use of surroundings and trees. The energy is measured, and reported continously.
Focus on talent
Documenting the developement of the individuals and how the products the create comes better and better. Photos and movieclips are recorded every week and put together for comparison and made available to everyone on the web. The public can follow the progress and at any time bid on any product. This gives us a possibility to see how far we are from generating the “status quo” income.
