The Syrian Initiative Craftsmanship Ecovillage

22 June 2016 1 Comment

A groundbreaking initiative driven by a group of Syrian refugees and Swedish eco-activists in Uppsala, Sweden. Their goal: to achieve a fully functioning ecovillage, combining craftsmanship with job opportunities and accommodation for its residents. The project has promising potential to serve as a model across Europe to empower refugees to take control of their own lives, integrate into society, and do so in a dignified, inexpensive and ecologically sustainable way.

“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”

Read the full story and support the project….

    It is truly heartening to see this option (an intentional community) being taken up as any opportunity to empower…. We wish them every success and peace from here on in! From the co-founders of the Harmony Community in South Africa. Keep up the good work… we can change the world.
