Build a Village Project

On February 9, 2009 - we've succeeded in historic clarification of our approach after several days of in-depth debate among core team members. Jeremy, Marcin, and Joseph Zarr arrived at the following.

---

We are clarifying our path to building the world's first, replicable post-industrial village. Has one already been made? If so, please tell us about it.

We are calling this the Build a Village Project.

What is our goal? It's a fully-functioning village, with a built-in economy, of about 30 people living a real life setting. Our goal is abundance and high quality of life.

Our means to this are the Global Village Construction Set as an inftrastructure base for this village - a basic set of 40 or so open source technologies for integrated, regenerative living. Our social approach to this is gathering a group of Integrated Humans to subject their lives to this experiment.
