We are just planting the first seeds of our newly established social enterprise the ‘Association of Resilient Living’!
The Association of Resilient Living was formed as a response to the number of supporters and members of Off Grid Festival that would like us to facilitate new ways to get together, more frequently, to learn, share and celebrate.
Find out more about Off Grid Festival here
We recognised that many of our members have a varied but also very similar set of specific needs that would benefit from the projects that have come out of conversations at Off Grid and in our communities. We also understand that although we LOVE getting together in a field, true resilience happens when you get home, in neighborhoods, towns, and cities.
So along with our national gathering, Off Grid Festival, we are developing ways to collaborate with individuals and other resilience and sustainability initiatives and to create new opportunities to learn. We will be facilitating the emergence of new partnerships and projects.
If you would like to get in touch with the Association of Resilient Living or get involved please contact Roxy via admin@offgrid-festival.co.uk
How you can get involved:
‘Resilience Training’- We will soon be forming some working groups for curriculum development contact us for more details
Creative Opportunity- How would you represent resilience? What are your ideas for creating a resilient world? What is your resilient vision of the future? We would love some creative input for designing our logo. If you would like to explore this with us please get in touch
Online Resilience Network- We are seeking volunteers to join the online social resilience network testing group: At the South West Permaculture Convergence 2017 we were part of a ‘creating an online permaculture network session’ where ‘Tech James’ shared his project of a purpose-built social network that could be used for many useful collaborative functions including trading, skillshare, land and venue share. Together we can build an open source online network that us designed with the functions that we need and want and build the potential to move away from the current available unethical online social platforms.
More announcements coming soon!
