Pout eco-village, an alternative economic model

Описание: You are viewing a short documentary on Pout eco-village, founded by Sheikh Aly N'Daw, head of the International Sufi School, who had a vision of an alternative sustainable economic model which furthers, first and foremost, human development, and not profit-making.

As Sheikh Aly explains in the film, his inspiration for such an economic model has been the lives of peacemakers such as Gandhi, Muhammad Yunus, Wangari Mathaai, Sheikh Ahmadou Bamba, William Penn, amongst others. They all created an economic model as a framework for everyone to learn how to be of service to their fellow human beings and in so doing, to reconnect with their own essential function as actors of their own development.

Pout eco-village, as an alternative economy by peaceful means, is an example that can be replicated anywhere in the world. It operates as a sustainable enterprise under the name of EcoPeace and is geared towards peacebuilding, socio-economic justice, sustainable farming and environmental protection.

Deeply rooted in nonviolence, it encourages a return to the earth for sustainable peace and community building as well as the training of the peacemakers who will dwell in the peace village. All those interested to discover and participate in the project are invited to stay in Pout eco-village for 2 days completely free of charge!
