ReSOURSE supports and implements principles of sustainable rural development. The organization supports rural youth and students to get knowledge, which can increase their employability (soft skills, new eco-technologies, base computer literacy, community building techniques). Our team try to implement new model for the sustainable development on rural territory. We try to get to know each other: youth from the remote villages, ecovillages and youth and students from cities, we give opportunity for people who interested in environmentally friendly lifestyle to get practice on the ground (project "Forest school”). People can stay for long period in our community to experience different practices and skills. Our project is a platform for communication between locals and citizens to exchange knowledge and inspiration. This model of activities promotes principle of transparency and solidarity between people with different positions. The main base principles: self-organisation, respect to the nature, balance between science and art, human development, revival of traditions, relations based on respect and deep understanding
