 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. 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.

 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 into 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 we have been developing since 2013 in South-West 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 into realities.

-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 an opportunity to lead a practical research on the Tour while expanding awareness about and participation in the changes we would like to witness around us.+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 an opportunity to lead a **practical research** on the Tour while expanding ​**awareness about** and **participation in** the changes we would like to witness around us.
  
 This Methodological Guide was born out of our will to share the **making of a "​Heterotopia Tour"​** and offer an **overview of the know-how required** to design 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. ​ This Methodological Guide was born out of our will to share the **making of a "​Heterotopia Tour"​** and offer an **overview of the know-how required** to design it.
