Cohousing Introduction
July 31, 2015 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Have you ever wondered how it would be:
- To live in a safe, multi-generational neighbourhood where you are valued and feel you belong?
- To have privacy and autonomy AND really know your neighbours?
- To live lightly on the earth and not have to own and do everything yourself?
Cohousing is a form of collaborative housing in which residents actively participate in the design and operation of their own neighbourhoods. The Earthsong Eco-Neighbourhood in West Auckland is recognised internationally as a model sustainable community, and a finalist in the World and UN Habitat Awards. Visit www.earthsong.org.nz to learn more.
Presenter Robin Allison, eco-architect, was the project coordinator and is now an Earthsong resident. Robin brings a wealth of skills and experience to inspire and assist others to develop sustainable community, either in existing suburbs or new-build.
