Ecovillages—Issue #156
Our latest Communities issue on Ecovillages
is proving to be one of our most popular issues. If you haven't seen it yet,

Our Fall 2012 issue focuses on Ecovillages. We hear from long-established ecovillages
about how they've evolved, and from new groups aspiring to create sustainable
settlements. We learn about physical skills, logistical and legal considerations,
organizational dynamics, and the interpersonal keys to ecovillage success. We
consider the intersection of ecovillages with cohousing, social change work,
neighborhood-building, and international networking―and also continue
the group process discussion initiated in our Summer issue. Please join us!!

Communities Magazine
Since 1972, Communities has been the primary resource
for information, issues, stories, and ideas about intentional communities
in North America - from urban co-ops to cohousing groups to ecovillages to rural
communes. Communities now also focuses on creating and enhancing community
in the workplace, in nonprofit or activist organizations, and in neighborhoods,
with enhanced coverage of international communities as well. We explore the
joys and challenges of cooperation in its many dimensions.
