Creating a Sustainable Future (6-day Workshop)
Creating a Sustainable Future
A 6-day Workshop at
Auroville
(Tamil Nadu, India)
September 17-23, 2017
‘Creating a
Sustainable Future’ explores an integral approach to sustainable practices
and introduces some of the technologies being developed and implemented in the
international community of Auroville in South India. The workshop also explores
inner sustainability, without which humanity will not be able to achieve a
permanent change of consciousness.
The workshop includes
theoretical sessions, practical demonstrations and site visits. In the
classroom sessions, we will cover topics such as environmental crisis, concepts
of sustainability, water harvesting, wastewater treatment, solar energy, earth
construction, food, health, and wellness. We will take you on visits to Auroville
communities to experience practical applications of sustainable principles. You
will also get an opportunity to experience activities that explore the inner
dimension.
Participants will
stay at the Auroville Center Guest House and join in an intensive experience
with sessions from 8.45 am to 9.00 pm every day. The sessions will be handled by an
interdisciplinary group of mainly Auroville residents, assisted by external
faculty.
Participants are
expected to arrive on
Sunday evening
(17th September, 2017) and stay until
Saturday
afternoon (23rd September, 2017).
