The curriculum of the four-weeks EDE course will consist of the basic knowledge for the development of Peace Villages.
At the same time this training is the first phase of a three-months basic-semester of the Peace Education Monte Cerro, which will include the Summer University “Global Grace Village“, from July 29th – August 15th, 2009.
The global economic crisis, the consequences of which cannot be completely forseen, shows once more that the contemporary capitalist era is going to end and must end for humankind to have a chance to survive.
But what will come after it?
Will civil wars and chaos be unavoidable after the breakdown of the big systems or are there alternatives? Will we also be able to live safely and well without globalized capitalism, or even better? How can we develop and design a sustainable economy? What will new social and economic structures look like, that are not based on the exploitation of human beings, animals and nature?
For years, communities, Ecovillages and Peace Villages all over the world have been doing research and working on the development of alternatives. Now they offer their social, ecological and spiritual experience and teach a knowledge of survival.
We cordially invite you to the fourth EDE course that is going to take place in Tamera!
The goal of this international course (the course language is English) is to learn the basic knowledge for the development of Ecovillages/Peace Villages. It is a course for people who intend to actively participate in the necessary change that is happening on planet earth.
The course will give an overview of the four elementary areas which form the pre-conditions for the development of sustainable models:
1. Worldview: Seeing the world as a whole, understanding why we have an influence on the whole. What does a socially committed spirituality which gives us the power we need to make our contribution look like ?
2. Social Issues: For decades, Tamera has been gathering particularly profound experience and knowledge in this area. What are meaningful structures for a new co-habitation? How can we develop a kind of understanding/communication which creates truth and trust – also in the core areas of community, in love and sexuality? The world needs models in which people really live together without continually reproducing war on a small scale so that a new culture of peace on earth can develop.
3. Economy: How do we deal with the issue of money in a healing way? How can we direct money into the development of sustainable systems instead of war and consumption? We will study the themes of Spiritual Economy, Barter Systems and Alternative Currencies.
1. Ecology: The material building blocks for the construction of new models: We will study in practice – based on existing examples for all areas, as well as in theory and get to know the areas of Ecology (Permaculture, particularly according to Sepp Holzer), new Technologies (Solar Technology – particularly according to Jürgen Kleinwächter) and sustainable building (particularly loam construction.)
The EDE education is a program of GAIA Education by GEN - Global Ecovillage Network (www.gaiaeducation.org; www.gen-europe.org), an official contribution to the “United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development 2005 – 2014” and recognized by UITAR (United Nations Institute for Training and Research).
