Hype for the Future 116O: New Vrindaban, West Virginia 🕉️

Overview The community of New Vrindaban, West Virginia, is named for the Indian city of Vrindavan in Uttar Pradesh and is identified as an intentional Hindu community situated within the Northern Panhandle of the State. Today, the community is accessible primarily via backroads leading ultimately toward Route 250, which in turn provides access toward communities such as Moundsville and Wheeling to the north and Fairmont to the south.

I've been looking for an excuse to visit since I heard about it at the #LondonNightCafe and I'm so excited to spend the week here bringing together thoughts and conversations around #OpenResearch, #WorkersCoops, and #IntentionalCommunities! 🤓🤩✨

I'll be partly wearing my @digiresacademy community manager hat too, and telling folks about our community and work 🎉👒

Sociocracy For All

Eco-village living and construction, global transformation and volunteer work aren't for everyone. For those who do want these things though, here is an option. Could a global cooperative of eco-villages help write the next positive chapter in the ever evolving human story? We think it can.

Hello @smallcircles and @indieterminacy !

Yes, they were always recorded and some of those videos were made public. :)

The conference is great and it deserves to be experienced through. While the main focus is #Sociocracy and #IntentionalCommunities, there is a lot more there (as the one on complex systems). :)

I hope to see you all there or discuss later new things learned... :D

If you are interested in #Sociocracy or #Peer #Governance, this next Saturday 22 will be the "5th Annual Intentional Communities Conference — Bringing Our Best Selves to the Whole" > https://www.sociocracyforall.org/sociocracy-in-intentional-communities-conference-2025/

Surely not the best part, but I will participate in a Advocate for Sociocracy in #IntentionalCommunities Circle open session and will share some thoughts (and dialog) about "Roots of Sociocracy: #ComplexSystems, relationships, #holons, #EmergentProperties and life in the #chaordic space".
