It’s fun to explore this map. Each blue pin represents an intentional community which will be visited and interviewed in this field study. Click on the pins for details, or zoom in to see their exact location. Clicking on the square symbol in the upper right corner will enlarge the map in a new window.
The Community Research Project is an initiative that wants to develop a greater understanding of the principles of community and create more awareness of the experience and knowledge gained by long-term intentional communities all over the world.
What is an Intentional Community?
"A group of people who have chosen to live together with a common purpose, working cooperatively to create a lifestyle that reflects their shared core values."
TEACHING BY EXAMPLE
"Ecovillages are small cells who take it up on themselves to live the ecologically responsible life, and by example spread the good practice."
