Beschrijving van de organisatie

RELEARN Suderbyn is a non-profit NGO working locally and internationally on the topics of environmental resilience, social justice, respect for human rights, democratic development, transformative education and international cooperation for sustainable development. We have experience in working with and leading various projects: locally, within the Baltic region and internationally.

The NGO was founded in Suderbyn Permaculture Ecovillage on Gotland in 2007. Over the years the NGO shifted its focus from local promotion of ecological lifestyle to regional and international work with the focus on education and holistic models of social and environmental sustainability. Our activity areas are:
1. Non-formal education for youth and adults;
2. Action Research and outreach;
3. Cross-border cooperation: across national borders and across different sectors.

Our mission is to work for a sustainable society where innovative solutions are integrated with rediscovered traditional knowledge. Through experiential methods we work with holistic learning, considering the society, nature, economy, culture and individuals as integrated parts of one complex system. To maximise and diversify our contribution towards social/ecological transition, we work with individuals, groups and international projects in various aspects of global, local and inner sustainability.
