What is this course about?

Explore Ecovillage Life is an invitation to step into a living community and experience what it means to share meals, work, decisions, and dreams. You will touch both the beauty and the challenges of community life – and discover how deeply personal growth and collective life are connected.

It is not about being the perfect community or the perfect person. It is about learning how to be human together.

Whether Avnø becomes your place or simply a step on your path, after your time here you will feel more grounded,  skilled and prepared for community life.

What will you get?

Through hands-on participation, co-creation, reflection, and shared practices, you will gain insight into:

  • Community life beyond ideals and romantic images
  • Sustainable and regenerative ways of living
  • Efficient tools for communication, collaboration, and decision-making
  • Insights on how personal growth and collective life are deeply connected

What is special about this course?

This 11-day immersion introduces you to the everyday reality of Avnø Oasis. Through theory, reflection, skill-building sessions, co-creation, practical work, and shared community tasks, you will live, learn, and work together while gaining skills that support healthy community life – in families, workplaces, co-housing, or intentional communities.

You will explore the philosophy behind Avnø Oasis and experience how it works in daily life, while developing essential social and practical skills for community living.
