Hm, I see… My sense from having read about these “eco dreams” (no pun intended) or projects-in-the-making, including Victor Vorski’s which I’m not sure even if it has kicked off at the physical level!), is that there arent resources and a clear framework in place - maybe the land, or some production facility and skills to start with etc… Somehow they dont manage to be legible outside of the group of initiators. Not sure if that’s your experience too?
Maybe thats also a function of a lot of focus put on ideation and dreaming, but not on how the work will help organise things.
From the other hand - having seen our own, more meanwhile spaces - OpenVillage in Morocco, or unMonastery in South Italy, even though they were organised around the work, they could have fared so much better in what you just wrote… maybe not enough attention to dynamics? just thinking out loud and expressing one version of the story.
I havent visited Tamera but it seems they are onto something. Other than that, the group that I’ve seen which tackles both strategic project/ development work and pays attention to interpersonal dynamics and governance is WBZ. Wrote about it here (they evolved more since it appears).
