Eco Villages in Asia
The Metta Experiment Thailand
We are a Dharma Community based on Buddhist Philosophy, we are not religious in any way and we welcome people of all belief systems or lack thereof. We practice the philosophy of Buddhist "middle way" thus
we are not extreme left or right. Our project is new and we have a little bit of house keeping to do, we plan to use the property as a permaculture site and an organic farm as well as doing some natural building with earthen materials and bamboo, we also have the intention to work as a community with the local Thai farmers and teach them more eco friendly ways to farm. Our community has a very traditional Thai feeling to it and is pretty much run in a respectful Eastern way. All of our facilities are modern and our housing is not typical of permaculture site as our property was designed to be a resort it is very much a resort luxury feeling compared to what the average person looking to volunteer on an organic farm would expect swimming pool and all. http://mettaexperiment.webs.com/ nb-website name changing soon--will update here | The Panya Project- Thailand
The Panya Project is a volunteer run Permaculture Education Center, located in Mae Taeng, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Founded in 2005, Panya now hosts a flourishing food forest with over 35 varieties of fruits and a garden that produces more and more of the communities food every year. Panya hosts Permaculture Design Courses, Sustainable living internships, and Natural Building workshops throughout the year. Panya is considered to be one of the premier permaculture centers in SE Asia, and consistantly gets raving reviews from the students and visitors.
Panya works closely with NGO organizations around SE Asia to help make their work more ecologically effective, whether it is rainforest conservation in Malaysia, refugee camps on the Thai Burma border or a home for pregnant youth. Panya is very happy to have volunteers, visitors and course participants through the site, as all bring their own knowledge, creativity and enthusiasm to the project. This helps the Panya family to continue to make their systems even stronger and pushed them to keep the spirit of joy and simple living alive. Come join us for a course!

Monkton Wyld Court UK
In 1940, Carl and Eleanor Urban came to Monkton Wyld Court to start a progressive coeducational boarding school, “to provide something of a microcosm with basic human activities such as farming and building going on”. When Monkton Wyld School closed in 1982, the place developed into an intentional community and holistic education centre. Today with a focus on sustainable living, the Court hosts courses, conferences and gatherings maintaining the tradition and the spirit of the educational charity registered seventy years ago. As well as supporting a Steiner-focused kindergarten and volunteer programme, we continue to pool our resources to gain, share and develop ‘basic human’ skills.

It backs on the Burgoyne Bay and Mill Farm public parks, which protect nearly the entire watershed of the two streams.

Khomanta Kancha FoundationKhomanta Kancha, Peru, is an alchemical initiative and ecovillage of
the new era, partly inspired by Vladimir Megre and Anastasia. Education, healing and selfsustainability, right in the purest nature. Our mission To offer ourselves, our visitors and the rest of the World a huge amount of inspiration to live in a self-created paradise: natural healing! This is it! Our land consists of 50 hectars of supergreen cloudforest with mountains and waterfalls, on a profetical, legendarily mystical and surprisingly biodiverse, ancient location in the Cusco region, Peru, on the altitude of 2.400 meters, right on the foot of the wise apu/mountain spirit Qiswarani. We expect, that around 15-20 People/families will be living on the land abundantly, each on 1-2 hectars, to design all by themselves. Everyone will then only work 1 day per week in the big garden, of which all can eat the whole week through. The rest of the time will stay available, to work on constructive individual and group-projects (see appendix ‘The content: our work’). Financing Our foundation is a non-profit organization…however, for we still regularly need to make small investments, before being abundantly self-sustainable, (specific) donations are more than welcome, in huge gratitude! We are looking for - Active participants: buy your own 2 hectars at $2.000/ha and take part!; - Temporary ‘partners’: support us with Beehives ($180/hive), and be repaid with 150% (!!!), after 2 years; - Voluntaries: per night $7 + 5 hours of your help. 3 veget. meals/day included; - Visitors: per night $14 + 2 hours of your help. 3 veget. meals/day included; - Donations: if you’d want to help us from a distance, please see the Financing’-appendix http://www.khomantakancha.pe/ ayni@khomantakancha.pe | Nature Island Eco Village
