  • Description

    Description

    Our NGO disseminates ideas of sustainable life between young people for more than 20 years. We live and work in a small remote village Zajezova that we have changed it to an eco-village. The community is decentralised unhierarchical and free social network of cooperating neighbours. There are several projects which unite local people – food bank, community school, forest kindergarten, educational center, common web page and email discussion groups etc. Many of them were initiated by our organization, but there are operating also some other NGOs and informal groups nowadays.

    The objective of our organization is to spread and implement sustainable life. We focus on the promotion of a harmonious lifestyle that is based on three pillars - harmony with nature, support of positive trends in society, personal development.

    Eco-community is on a traditional farm and its surrounding property is gradually developed and transformed into a demonstrational eco farm and a center for visitors, who would like to gain experience with the lifestyle that we are presenting.
