Beskrivelse av organisasjon
Stagones is a former informal group of young people trying to "live lightly and meaningfully on earth" and we recently became a social cooperative. We are four families with small kids living in an natural environment on Evia-island.
Our aims include:
promotion of a healthy way of life
promotion of sustainable everyday practices
protection of the environment
promotion of democratic education
In doing so our main areas of activity are:
1.Natural and Organic farming: We cultivate as much of our food and we also cultivate vegetables and pomegranates professionally to sell to the local and wider market, reallocating the amounts earned for the scope of our organization as is discribed also in our statute
2.Natural Building: We design and construct eco-friendly, handmade buildings and smaller scale constructions such us earth ovens, benches, fireplaces, kiosks etc. In addition, we run Natural Building workshops for people who wish to learn through practical experience
3.Cultural and creative interchange through the organization of small scale projects with the involvement of the local community and also the organization of small scale art festivals
4.Transformation of educational systems towards democratic education. We organize Agile Learning workshops and also informational days in order to promote and discuss about democratic education
In all of our activities the participants learn using non formal educational methods mainly being experiential education (learning by doing).
Since activities and world-views are interrelated, we approach aspects of everyday living in an holistic way.
