Ekolo Mundo does not control the feasibility or viability of the proposed solutions
Solution proposed by : Ressourc Eure
It is a nonprofit organization established under the French Law of 1901, whose mission is to contribute to the transition toward a more humane society that respects all living things.
It’s a third place that houses a grocery store, a café, a shared garden, a recycling center, and plenty of good cheer!
It is a social project that seeks
- to foster intergenerational relationships (bringing together young and older residents, developing mutual support, organizing opportunities for knowledge exchange, etc.)…
- to reconnect families at a time when everything is moving faster: taking the time to share as a family over a cup of hot chocolate, a board game, gardening or DIY workshops… and support parenting (discussion sessions, conferences…).
- to contribute to local economic development by supporting activities in the village with the goal of creating jobs that cannot be outsourced.
It is a sustainable project:
- which connects producers and consumers through group buying and the grocery store. This reduces the need for middlemen, transportation, and packaging…
- which aims to develop a food garden that also serves as a venue for educational activities and relaxation for our visitors.
It is a cooperative project:
- which carries out its activities through collective intelligence using a cooperative governance model.
- which proposes taking action not only within our municipality but also across our region by fostering citizen cooperation through emerging networks, active members, and local partners.
Our actions:
- - nature club workshops
- - grocery store and group buying
- - the café
- - the mini-market
- - the shared garden
- - the bread oven
- - the recycling center
