Resumo: The organization was originally founded in 1999. In May 2020 it was transformed into a Social & Community Cooperative in compliance with the new national regulations for the third sector. To develop the local activities and be registered as a fully licenced enterprise, a cultural centre and a guesthouse were established in a large part of the village, now open to the public and managed by the Cooperative.
The centre includes a guesthouse for holiday accommodation, a restaurant, training facilities for courses and workshops and a small library. The cooperative employs six people, mostly women, and is largely supported by the resident community in daily chores like cooking, shopping and cleaning.
Normally, the guesthouse dining area and meeting rooms are shared by the resident community, the volunteers and the guests, with buffet meals served at fixed times, and everyone eats together at large tables either in one of the three dining rooms or on the terraces. Since the start of the Covid19 sanitary emergency, the community has decided to eat separately in the individual homes, and the meals are served to the guests at tables that apply the social distancing regulations.
