Positives is achievable! In this book, we present a selection of ecovillages from all continents that provide an impression of the richness and diversity of the movement. The book is based on texts and interviews with founders or long-term community members. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Global Ecovillage Network (GEN), we wanted to take a look at what has been accomplished, but we also asked those involved to not shy away from sharing their difficulties and conflicts. This resulted in a reader that offers a very personal testimony of one of the greatest adventures of our time: taking our lives back into our own hands in the face of global powers.
