Anandi (Photographer: Alex)En este programa Anandi nos cuenta el proyecto del New Pour Tous, un mercado cooperativa que trabaja para generar un nuevo tejido económico sustentable, que surgió de una iniciativa popular para traer nuevas maneras de consumir. Comenzó a funcionar hace 4 anos y hoy hay mas de 600 participantes que mensualmente contribuyen con una cantidad fija de dinero a un pote común, y de allí se hacen las compras del mes. Cada uno es responsable por controlar su consumo y asegurarse que todos puedan ser beneficiados. Un muy interesante y innovador proyecto!

Manigance à la maintenance ?

Sur les trottoirs imaginaires (Photographer: Chloe)Nous avons lu, dans le News&Notes du 20 janvier 2010 le rapport d'Auroville Board of Service faisant mention d'un « plan pour introduire la Maintenance Universelle ». Ce plan serait « un des chemins pour amener tout ceux qui rejoignent AV et travaillent ensemble pour ces idéaux in one economy ». Il y a donc un plan quelque part. Des Aurovilliens qui se grattent la tête, des stratèges de l'économie unitaire. Ce fut une bonne nouvelle, une laïque surprise. Il nous fallait au plus vite réaliser un reportage sur ce topic et trainer notre micro sur les trottoirs imaginaires en quête de commentaires.

Sunday, 24 January 2010

In 2006 the construction of "Pour Tous II" building situated next to the Solar Kitchen was finished, and a new experiment in the Auroville community life began. Pour Tous Distribution Center is a fresh step towards resurrecting “prosperity” within Auroville. After 3 and a half years of activity PTDC wanted to thank all those who participated in the creation and development of the center as well as the 573 members who give support and energy day after day. To express gratitude to everyone, all were invited to enjoy some snacks and exchange wishes for a happy new year. AurovilleRadio took the opportunity of this event to ask the users about their opinion and suggestions for the future development of Pour Tour. .

IDEA Open Space

Tuesday, 29 August 2006

An event that aims at sharing with the community a series of issues related to economy. Mother gave clear indications on how Auroville's economy must function, but left the details of its implementation to us. Today, after 38 years of experimentation, the organisers of IDEA ask us to assess how far we are with regard to that “Ideal Economy”.
The IDEA team has prepared 14 panels where key words and situations are visualised in a playful way, and participants are invited to express their feedback.
In the afternoons open dialogues go deeper into the details, leading to various ideas of the organisers on how to possibly improve Auroville's economic situation and get closer towards the economy Mother envisioned.Download the document
