Utopian Intentional Community Has Thrived for 30 Years
Seems like everyone is talking abut Damanhur lately. Sounds like a pretty amazing place.
Honored by the United Nations in 2005 as a model for a new sustainable society, this extraordinary community in northern Italy was founded in 1975 as a center of art and spirituality; and an experimental model of environmental and socioeconomic sustainability.
Today over 1,000 people live and work in Damanhur’s 40 villages, many in “group” homes where 12 or more people – related or not – divvy up chores and share meals at enormous tables. This sort of togetherness would make many Americans downright surly! But every one of the Damanhurians I met was disarmingly happy and quick to laugh.
