💼 What the programme involves
Our ecovillege was created to provide continuity and stability to the sit-in that workers and users of the field of drug addiction began in February 2012, when the Community of Madrid decided to close, under the guise of austerity, the therapeutic community functioning here.
The current social reality, the support received and our belief that the transformation must be carried out by the persons concerned, led us to continue and implement the project of living and learning together.
We got to continue the project through self-management of our resources. We carry out gardening, animal care, maintenance of facilities and grounds. We are in constant exchange of ideas, goods and services with other groups and individuals, enriching each other. In turn, we have the contributions that each made according to their means.
Through the assembly from the horizontal and respect, manage conflicts, make decisions, and ultimately we try to go forward.
