 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 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**.
+Guided by our past experiences and heartened by 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 traveling and community living that had been developing since 2013 in South-West France - in order to **empower people** and **foster social change**.
-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.

+This Methodological Guide was born out of our will to share the **making of a "Heterotopia Tour"** and offer an **overview on the know-how required** to implement it. We tried our best to share its **spirit**, to sum up the **main topics** it deals with (community living, ecological awareness, social innovation) and provide **practical information, tools and tips** to make it happen.

-Our intention was to **clarify the process** and the **practical requirements** of a Heterotopia Tour, so that other organizations 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.
