The Belgian course “Social dimension of agroecology – City and countryside” will take place in Brussels and Namur in November 11-16.
The Belgian course is builded in two parts:
- The first three days 11-13/11 will take place in a ecovillage called “la ferme de Wevy-Weron” on the countryside where the participants will be part of the life of the 40 inhabitants living there (Old farmhouse + Self-made woodhouses + Houses in the trees +… . This experience will be an opportunity to meet the people, to see their activities (gardening, agriculture, raising goats, bio-food distribution, bakery …) and how they organize the life together.
- The three last days 14-16/11 will happen in Brussels around city commun and shared garden and other agroecological experiences open to people with disabilities or social difficulties (children in risk, homeless people, eldery etc.)
The focus of the course is:
- Transmission of an eco-village experience and sharing with other existing experiences
- Transmission of agroecological experiences with people with disabilities or social difficulties
