Vi har på besøk vår Vennskap Nord-Sør partner Colombia en Hechos fra Colombia, og vil gjerne bruker anledning til å spre informasjon ang. dems spennende arbeid rundt Miljø, Fred og Bærekraftig Utvikling.

Colombia en Hechos : A non-governmental, nonprofit organization (NGO) working since 2002 on environmental projects. The organization was founded by an interdisciplinary group of professionals committed with the generation, alongside with local communities, internal refugees, groups of people and institutions, of real options for conservation and sustainable development (understanding development as a constant change to create human settlement for sustainability and peace). Colombia en Hechos address problems resulting from the impact that our current life styles and our internal conflict: Refugees, poverty,  water pollution, production and management of waste, consumption behavior, deforestation due to the expansion of the agricultural frontier and logging, indiscriminate hunting and fishing, pollution created by the use of agrochemicals.

The efforts have resulted in the development of several alternative programs, including ecotourism, environmental education projects, creation of new private reserves and educational material developed by local communities. This work has taken place in communities located in Colombia’s Caribbean, Pacific, Orinoco, Amazon and Andean regions.”

permaculture-and-sustainabilityChange the World: Change the World has taken up the task of working towards real, hands-on processes of change from an integral and holistic perspective, promoting sustainable development from the grass-root. We use permaculture as a tool for the design of integral sustainable systems. This way we foment the establishment of ecovillages, eco-neighborhoods, eco-centers and other kinds of sustainable human settlements capable of being real, inspirational and demonstrative examples, bonding Man and Nature through social-ecology.

FootprintChange the World has taken up the task of working towards real, hands-on processes of change from an integral and holistic perspective, promoting sustainable development from the grass-root. We use permaculture as a tool for the design of integral sustainable systems. This way we foment the establishment of ecovillages, eco-neighborhoods, eco-centers and other kinds of sustainable human settlements capable of being real, inspirational and demonstrative examples, bonding Man and Nature through social-ecology.

Our work responds to the critical situation which the planet is facing. The ecological footprint which the modern society is creating is much bigger than the biocapacity of the Earth. The excessive consumerism of western development model and the economic and social imbalance produced by this provoke a large amount of impacts.

PermacultureWe believe it’s indispensable to have solid examples of alternative development and different ways of living which correspond to local needs, based on specific realities of each human group and each place. These examples should be serving as sources of inspiration and not as models. Knowing other ways of: organization, social structures, production, building, economy, sources of energy, etc. will allow us to create better living conditions for sustainable and integral development. When these living experiences, creating self-sufficiency, community-sense and minimum natural impact really work, it allows them to multiply and spread around.

In order to accomplish these goals, we have focused our work within the following areas, all strongly related one to another, according to our holistic and integral approach:

  • Training and Education
  • Advice and Consultancy
  • Support for Autogestion
  • Technological Innovation
  • Linking North and South

CTW consists of a professional team with a long international experience on subjects such as: permaculture, ecovillages, ecology, social ecology, ecological architecture, appropriate technologies, education, conflict resolution, decision making through consensus, cultural translation, local sustainable development, local indicators of sustainability, Local Agenda 21, conservation of biodiversity with community participation and related subjects.Permaculture

The organization is part of a broad international network within the ecovillage, permaculture and bioregionalist movement, and also maintains strong relations to grass-root organizations, other environmental entities of a social character, both in the North and in the South.
