Ecovillage
A Model For Sustainable Living
Within the Findhorn Ecovillage at The Park, sustainable values are expressed in the built environment through our ecological houses, innovative use of building materials such as local stone and straw bales, the beauty in the architecture and gardens, and applied technology in the Living Machine sewage treatment facility and electricity-generating wind turbines. Sustainable values are also expressed in the community’s social, economic and educational initiatives.
The Findhorn Ecovillage
Findhorn Ecovillage looks at sustainability not only in environmental terms, but also in social, economic and spiritual terms.
Sustainable Living
The ecovillage model is a conscious response to the extremely complex problem of how to transform our human settlements, whether they be villages, towns or cities, into full-featured sustainable communities, harmlessly integrated into the natural environment.
Ecovillage Workshops
Concepts, tools and techniques for creating sustainable human settlements. A practical forum for learning and for developing action plans drawing on the experience and expertise developed within the Findhorn Ecovillage and other initiatives.
CIFAL Findhorn
Capacity-building and knowledge sharing courses on all aspects of integrated sustainable development. CIFAL Findhorn is a UN affiliated training centre based at the Findhorn Ecovillage.
United Nations and the Findhorn Foundation
The Findhorn Foundation is an Non-Governmental Organisation associated with the United Nations Department of Public Information and takes an active role at UN headquarters in New York especially in the areas of education, sustainability and values.
