What we do

Government leaders throughout the world, despite having resources available to them, have systemically failed for decades to take true measures to end poverty and homelessness. In doing so, they have recklessly disregarded their duties under law to protect and care for adult dependents who are left homeless to die on the streets without shelter or housing.
Recognizing the ever growing and continued reckless endangerment of society’s most vulnerable citizens by our government leaders, we seek to procure land to develop the world’s first tiny-town eco-village (Ama-gi eco-village) for unhoused poverty-stricken individuals, created by homeless people for homeless people.
AMA-GI ECO-VILLAGES (FREEDOM ECO-VILLAGES)
Ama-gi is a Sumerian word written ama-gi or ama-ar-gi. It has been translated as “freedom”, as well as “manumission,” “exemption from debts or obligations,” and “the restoration of persons and property to their original status,” including the remission of debts. Other interpretations include a “reversion to a previous state,” and release from debt, slavery, taxation, or punishment.
As humans, prone to error, being fallible and corruptible, we recognize that individuals fall, struggle, get lost, and need true acceptance and understanding. These people need to be supported by actions that promote habilitation and empowerment.
Embracing such, we seek those who treat all equally and fairly, irrespective of one’s religion, political stances, sexuality, gender orientation, ethnicity, disability, circumstances, or pasts (holding no judgement on any), as everyone can change and better their lives and the lives of others.
We seek those not only seeking subsidiary protection/asylum from America, but also those who believe in discovering and cultivating the existing creative blessings of music, art, and creative talents and gifts within their own lives and in the lives of others.
We seek those who embrace nature (and all life) as valuable and sacred. Who wish to live sustainably as stewards to, and in harmony with, our planet and its biodiversity, and their fellow beings.
In doing so, we believe we can alleviate the world’s poverty stricken, unhoused and unsheltered crisis, through sustainable development.
AMA-GI
“A Place for Self-Discovery and Unfoldment Towards Spiritual Freedom”
Ama-Gi Eco-Villages will provide healthy and safe environments for a small number of low-income residents, including artists and musicians who are unhoused and desire to transition out of chronic homelessness, through eco-village development training and employment in the areas of 3D printed sustainable tiny town house design and manufacturing.
In turn, these individuals will share their distinct creative talents and skills (e.g., music, art, design and constructing) in such a way that enriches everyone for the purpose of creating branches of Ama-gi (Freedom) Eco-villages throughout the United States (and eventually around the world).

Looking for: people building relational capacity, with a view to community

What’s here now: An intention, a framework developed over five years, and a programme running in central Victoria to find people to build with. No land, no group, no timeline. The question this is organised around: What makes a community of people living together sustainable over decades – where people enjoy being there, conflict is low, and the conflict that does arise gets handled in ways people value. The distinctive premise is capacity before formation. Most communities form first and build relational skill afterwards, usually under pressure. This one proposes doing it the other way round: people build the capacities first, and the group forms from people who have them. That includes a working idea about collective capacity – that a group has a ratio, and below some threshold it can’t metabolise its own conflict and starts consuming itself. Roughly: in a group of twenty, perhaps three or four with high capacity, most in the middle, and very few without. Untested, and something this project exists to find out. Governance: Sociocracy, with the intention of testing it meaningfully at scale rather than adopting it nominally. What’s actually happening: A three-week residency at a property near Castlemaine, and a practice group running before it. The medium-term aim is twenty to forty people at a rented facility. The long-term aim is a support hub sharing the framework more widely. What I’m looking for: People who want to build this capacity seriously, and who might eventually want to build something together. Not necessarily people who want to live here – the current property probably isn’t the long-term site. Happy to hear from anyone this resonates with, including people already in community who’d rather share what they’ve learned than join anything.
