Resumo: The Project is an ecovillage located in a 5-hectare plot of land in the Natural Park. We are located in a privileged area within a laurisilva forest on the banks of the river. This privileged geographical situation offers views to the African continent from the mountain, a key point for birdwatching, thus making the place rich in biodiversity, a variety of ecosystems and biotopes.

In order to legally manage our activities, we are registered as a consume and services cooperative.

The organization is formed by permanent members who live in the plot and work in the project. Besides, there are also seasonal members: 4-8 volunteers, depending on the season, who stay for periods of 3-6 months and students, who live with us for 28 days as part of a non-regulated education program.

Our motto is: If you want to learn, teach. Our vision is based on the idea of learning through cohabitation, which we have developed from our experience and beliefs.

The key points of our views are listed in the RIE and GEN Europe, and include:
A profound care and respect for the environment and territory where we live, as part of a deep sense of ecology.
Care for the soil and creatures, from a permaculture perspective.
Care for health and nutrition through the practice of exercise, yoga, meditation and so on.
Personal development through conflict and group management.
Development of the values of sympathy, acceptance and respect towards cultural and gender diversity.

Our objectives in keeping with our fundamental values are the following:

Be sustainable by producing our own food and generating alternative sources of energy.
Develop a new concept of economy by making use of the resources in a healthy and fair manner.
Educate people in terms of group management, agriculture, biodynamics, eco-friendly stockbreeding, permaculture and bioconstruction.
Feed ourselves in a conscious and balanced way, mostly with our own produce or local produce, thus promoting the small-scale local economy.
Be a training and practice centre for Group Management, Yoga, Dragon Dreaming, Permaculture, Bioconstruction and other tools for change.

In order to pursue these objectives, we have developed four different areas:

The assembly area is where we make decisions. Shared leadership and a horizontal decision-taking perspective are of paramount importance in order to allow everybody´s personal empowerment.

The emotional management area is where we work on self-discovery, and relationships among us. We use techniques such as feedback, active listening, collaborative tree, sharing, FOP or circle formation.

The enquiry area is where we open up to receive information though techniques like the fishtank, dragon dreaming and constellations.

The connection area is where we communicate though artistic expression, rituals, celebration and play.

In the same way as we want the group to evolve, we also wish for those who live here to experience a full personal development by actively participating in each of the areas described above.

That is why we have a perfectly structured and balanced agenda. In the mornings, we work together in several areas: the orchard and vegetable garden area, the animal care area, the beautification of the place area, the nutrition area, and the area of maintenance and bioconstruction. Besides, depending on the season, there is a variety of teamwork that takes place: fetching firewood, making preserves and jams, making soap, carpentry work, etc. We believe teamwork is a great way of learning from others and of creating bonds with the people we share this place with.
