“Our basis is formed by common ideals concerning ecology, income sharing, communal living, and finally, Self Government. We are still a part of the outside society, we invite our neighbors to harvest-marked, Christmas-marked, etc., and we participate in committees and the social life in the schools and local area, as well as some of us join political parties, NGO’s and global movements. Realizing some of our ideas of a better society at Svanholm can actually give us inspirations to formulate goals and strategies for the outside society for which we also feel a responsibility.”
