- | The “//Idea(l)s in Action//” project was born in 2016 at a time where we, the partners, were going through hardships (financial, organizational…). We were looking for ways to bring sustainable ways of living to light, as well as methods to support people in their efforts to take action (allowing them to believe in their abilities and to be the change they hope for themselves and for the society they belong to) while making a living in a way that fits their values. | + | The “//Idea(l)s in Action//” project was born in 2016 when we, the partners, were seeking ways to draw attention on existing **sustainable lifestyles**, and figuring out methods to support people in their efforts to **take action** while making a living in a way that fits their values. |
- | We took advantage from our past experiences and from the trust we had in each other to design together a project that may enable us to give shape to our wishes. From our efforts emerged a 22-month-long project based on **learning-by-doing** and **travelling**, whose main objective was to develop and spread the "Heterotopia Tour", as a pedagogical tool to expand awareness and effectiveness towards the change we would like to activate within the realities that surrounds us. | + | Guided by our past experiences and heartened the trust we had in each other, we designed together a project that would enable us to turn our wishes to realities. From our collective efforts, a 22-months-long project emerged, whose main objective was to **develop and spread the "Heterotopia Tour"**, a **pedagogical tool** based on travelling and community living we were developing since 2013 in the South of France in order to **empower people** and **foster social change**. |
- | This Methodological Guide is born from our need to share the **making-of of a "Heterotopia Tour"** and to give an **overview on the know-how required** to implement it. We tried our best to share the **spirit** of a Heterotopia Tour, to resume the main topics if deals with (community living, ecological awareness, social innovation) and provide practical information, tools and tips to make it happen. | + | Together, we designed and implemented 4 Heterotopia Tours within a year: 1 in France, 1 in Greece, 1 in Italy (Sicily) and 1 in Portugal. Each Tour was the opportunity to lead a practical research on the Tour while expanding awareness and effectiveness to the change we would like to activate within the realities that surrounds us. |
- | Our intention was to **clarify the process** and the **practical requirements** of a Heterotopia Tour, so that other organisations may use it. We took as much as possible into consideration various contexts, approaches and ways of doing to extract from our specific experiences a pedagogical method. | + | This Methodological Guide is born from our will to share the **making-of of a "Heterotopia Tour"** and to give an **overview on the know-how required** to implement it.
