                  • Communities for Future is being spearheaded by ECOLISE, the European network for community-led initiatives on climate change and sustainability.

                  • Contact us
                  • For decades ecovillagers, permaculture practitioners, and those in the Transition Network, have been imagining the world anew. More importantly, they have been experimenting with and demonstrating sustainable and regenerative ways of living. Like careful gardeners, they have been tending the seeds of a fairer, more resilient world. At this time of rupture, Communities for Future is about spreading these seedlings of hope far and wide.
