What we do

Arterra Bizimodu somos una comunidad intencional que nació en la primavera de 2014 en la localidad de Artieda, Navarra. Con el lema “Otro mundo no solo es posible, sino necesario”, levamos desde entonces caminando como Ecoaldea con el objetivo de dinamizar actividades hacia la autosuficiencia y de indagar otras economías que reflejen un nuevo equilibrio entre lo personal y lo colectivo, desplegando la creatividad y los diversos talentos de cada una de las personas que se van sumando al proyecto. Lo hacemos con la confianza de que sumando, es más fácil el camino.
Arterra Bizimodu nos presentamos pues como otra respuesta a la crisis imperante. Estamos auto organizándonos, apoyando el nacimiento de iniciativas emprendedoras diversas, talleres, cursos, huertos, artesanía, música, cooperativas… Tratamos de alcanzar economías sencillas, familiares; vivir y recrear una cultura de la abundancia de la vida, aprendiendo de la Tierra y de su generosa diversidad.
El co-habitar lo ponemos en práctica en un antiguo hotel rural, donde cada núcleo familiar o fuego (como aquí nos llamamos) dispone de su espacio individual, a la vez que compartimos los espacios comunes. Disponemos de 8000 metros cuadrados de espacios polivalentes: hemos transformado muchos de los espacios en lugares óptimos y sostenibles para el desarrollo de nuestros propósitos. Nos queda trabajo para convertir un antiguo edificio en un hábitat sostenible.
Somos un experimento en Sociocracia, explorando otras maneras de autogobierno y gestión colectiva. Es un modelo de autogobierno innovador que busca armonizar el reparto del poder y la eficiencia en las organizaciones.
Nos organizamos en Círculos para la gestión de las diferentes áreas comunes, nos reunimos una vez al mes todo el grupo para compartir como estamos… Vamos indagando estructuras capaces de acoger un grupo cada día mayor y trabajando en el crear un Campus para la Transición, donde disponer de las herramientas para ese mundo que sabemos posible.

Healing Love Healing Money: Trust As The Foundation For A New Culture

Money, love and power are among the hardest things any community works with, and many of us carry the same fears into both: not having enough, losing what we have, and the sense that if someone else gets money or love, we won’t. Healing Love, Healing Money: Trust as the Foundation for a New Culture is taught by two intentional communities. Karen McAllister and Duncan Cryle are from Clear Sky Meditation and Retreat Center, a Buddhist-lineage community in the BC Rockies. Monika Alleweldt and Benjamin von Mendelssohn from Tamera Healing Biotope, a community of about 160 people in southern Portugal that has spent decades studying love, trust and relationship. Clear Sky has spent years working on its relationship with money, and our two communities found surprising parallels in the fears beneath both. Over four sessions we explore the roots of fear around money and belonging, love, possession and power, trust as infrastructure (community as a container for healing), and ethical livelihood. We use short meditations, body-based practices, reflection and small-group conversation. You do not need to be in a romantic relationship or live in community. When: October 27, Nov 3, 10, 17. All four sessions: 12–2pm Vancouver, 1–3pm Alberta, 7–9pm UK and Portugal, 8–10pm Central Europe. Note: US and some Canadian provinces change clocks on November 1, so the US west coast is 12–2pm on October 27, then 11am–1pm for the remaining sessions, and Eastern is 3–5pm on October 27, then 2–4pm for the rest. Cost: sliding scale Details and registration: https://www.clearskycenter.org/event/healing-love-healing-money-online/
