Auroville is a township project, and is home to over 3000 permanent residents, while employing over 7000 from the neighbouring villages, and attracting over 4000 tourists on a daily basis. It is spread over a large area of over 25km2 and is made up of a collection of about 120 “sub-communities.” It has countless interesting projects that can be visited as demonstration sites for solutions in building a new world.

This immersive program allows for a deep dive into individual and collective process for transformation. It is specifically designed for those yearning for change; as a space to live, learn and work to support one another through it. Participants will not only learn more about themselves, but they will also discover a variety of examples for ecology, alternative economy, innovative social and worldview solutions that Auroville has been internationally acclaimed for.

This residential course is hosted in an affordable accommodation, where the campus allows for shared facilities, and learning spaces indoors and outdoors. It will act as a point to experience community living, however, there will also be almost daily excursions out to visit as many other examples of solutions as possible.

Please contact us for a copy of the course brochure and application form. Please note that this course provides a suggested experience - however it will be tailor adjusted to YOUR learning requests. Thus, the interview process beforehand plays a key role - so that facilitators can understand the applicants in depth, in order to then re-arrange the curriculum accordingly to meet the learning needs of the students that plan to come.

In Auroville we are inspired by Sri Aurobindo and Mirra Alphassa’s philosophy on “Integral Education” - thus the course is also designed in a way to allow for “free progress” learning, and for all levels of our being, Physical/Emotional/Spiritual etc. to be explore through the complimentary 4 dimensions of Social/Economy/Ecology/Worldview/Design from Gaia Education.
