Sumak kawsay - "good living" in harmony with our communities, ourselves, and most importantly, our living, breathing environment. Explore sumak kawsay in indigenous cultures and modern life. Sumak Kawsay – “Good Living” Sumak Kawsay describes an ancient way of living in harmony within communities, ourselves, and most importantly, nature An ancient Quechua word, sumak kawsay means “good living” or the “good life,” and means more than our version of la buena vida.
Often when we hear this, we may think of easy living, and a carefree yet connected lifestyle, but sumak kawsay is much deeper than this. Throughout South America, it is a way of living in harmony within communities, ourselves, and most importantly, nature. Sumak Kawsay in Indigenous Culture The sumak kawsay way of living has permeated indigenous cultures for thousands of years. Indigenous tribes, such as the Achuar and Kichwa, use their resources in a way that promotes regeneration, and regrowth. Our Alliance to Preserve Sumak Kawsay. Land Titling - The Pachamama Alliance. We have supported the mapping, titling, and participatory census of Achuar, Shiwiar, Sápara, and Shuar territories, and are working with these communities on natural resource management planning and climate change policies. Supporting “Planes de Vida” We are helping the Sápara people with a natural resource plan for their territory so they may optimize and sustainably manage the resources in their territories.
Natural resource plans are created through collaborative decision-making, and provide tools for self-governance and participatory management that harnesses the collective wisdom of the community. Securing Legal Recognition for Ancestral Territories We provide administrative support for indigenous groups across the Amazon basin. Thanks to this effort, the Achuar, Shiwiar, and Shuar nationalities have secured legal recognition of 865,000 acres of ancestral territories in 2011, for a total of 1.8 million acres to date.

Throughout our culture we see signs of change, progress, and evolution. A "Creative Class" is on the rise that -- with the help of the Internet and other related technologies -- will reportedly transform our entire socio-economic system.
And yet, at the same time, something is amiss. Much of this so-called Creative Class can only prosper by finding work within the current corporate infrastructure, resulting in very little actual creativity or innovation. The very ones who might create the necessary change in society must expend their time and energy worrying about "making a living. " Those who can keep a job have to sacrifice ideas that contradict the wishes of bosses and the company's stockholders. For those who have been diagnosed "abnormal" by our society, this problem is especially prevalent. The most creative visionaries often cannot function adequately in modern society. It is time that we break out of this double-bind.
Uncovering the Ancient Science of Sacred Spaces. Figure 1. The "rose line" orbital pattern of Venus. This article is based on The Venus Blueprint: Uncovering the Ancient Science of Sacred Spaces, now available from EVOLVER EDITIONS/North Atlantic Books. In ancient times, astronomers tracked the orbit of Venus very closely, discovering that it traced a pentagonal rose pattern in the sky over eight years (Fig. 1). Caused by a planetary resonance where Venus orbits the Sun thirteen times for every eight orbits of the Earth, this rose-line or "rosslyn" pentacle was greatly revered in the mystery schools. It was even used as a blueprint to design the "sacred spaces" of many famous chapels, cathedrals and temples. As I came to discover, a sacred space is far more than just a matter of religious belief. Resonant Symbols of Venus In 2006, I saw a press release announcing that the resonance patterns of a song had been carved into the arches of Scotland's 15th-century Rosslyn chapel.
Yet, there were more clues that connected Rosslyn with Venus. Rethinking Money. What is money and who does it serve? New answers to these questions are challenging the foundations of our economic system. On August 22, join provocative social thinkers David Graeber, Charles Eisenstein, and Daniel Pinchbeck for "The New Edge of Radical Economics," as they dissect many of our unspoken economic assumptions and share ideas about how to create an economy that serves people and communities, not obsolete, destructive institutions.
Innovative practices are emerging that connect individuals to community, support a healthy commons, and meet our truest spiritual and emotional needs. These alternatives move beyond the old socialist/communist paradigm and are inspired by indigenous tribal practices, recent experiences with non-interest-bearing and complementary currencies, and the rich tradition of anarchism. David Graeber is the author of the acclaimed book, Debt: The First 5,000 Years, and was in the group that coined the Occupy slogan "We are the 99%! " When: August 22nd, 7pm. Releases. Chart Focus: The world needs a resource revolution. FarmHopping Saves Small Farms By Letting You Take Control Of Them. Small farms may get a lot of business in big city farmer’s markets, but they still struggle; it’s hard to compete against the massive industrial farms that supply much of the food we find in supermarkets and chain restaurants.
But what if there were a way to get all the people that care deeply about small farms to help them directly, outside of just buying products? After all, platforms like Kickstarter have helped small projects that might otherwise be dead in the water raise hundreds of thousands of dollars from passionate--but often random--Internet users. Rossi Mitova, a recent business school graduate, is taking on the challenge. The idea to help small farms came to her when a friend fell in love with a small farm in the mountains of Bulgaria (her home country) and decided to pay to take care of two sheep living there. And so the FarmHopping concept was born. And what if all of the owners of Farm Perun’s sheep decide they are going to stop milking their sheep?
Unearthing Gardening Traditions in Minneapolis « Food Forward TV. A “glyph” of the Mexica concept of Zenteotl– Nahuatl for “First Energy:” the energy from the universe that materialized upon earth and made the creation of corn possible. “We have been able to unearth our traditions,” said Deborah Ramos about the Zenteotl project that she started in Minnesota in 2006. The Zenteotl Project, which in Nahuatl means, “first energy,” is meant to unite the Latino community of Central and South Minneapolis through art, traditional Mexica dance, and the traditional cultivation of corn.
The project started as a multi-media performance created by Deborah, a visual artist, after traveling to Mexico and learning from traditional teachers about the origins of corn. She learned that corn is not like any other plant, it needs to grow within a community of other corn, and it needs a direct relationship with humans. Humans, and the Mexica people of Mexico in particular, grow with corn; it is a mutual relationship.

USGBC - San Diego - GreenMeet - The Future of Water in San Diego. PROJECTS :: San Diego's Regional Planning Agency. Comprehensive Transportation Projects SANDAG, as the Metropolitan Planning Organization and the Regional Transportation Planning Agency, is required by state and federal laws to develop and adopt a Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP).
The RTIP is a multi-billion dollar, multi-year program of proposed projects for major highway, arterial, transit, and bikeway projects. Any transportation projects funded with federal, state or by the TransNet Ordinance must be included in an approved RTIP. The RTIP covers five fiscal years and incrementally implements the 2050 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), the long-range transportation plan for the San Diego region. At its meeting on September 28, 2012, the SANDAG Board of Directors adopted the final 2012 Regional Transportation Improvement Program. The 2012 RTIP/2013 FSTIP received federal approval on December 14, 2012. ProjectTrak is an online application used by member agencies to propose changes to the RTIP. 2014 RTIP Update. Regional groups unite behind Colorado River. While Gov. Jerry Brown unveiled a massive water project proposal for Northern California on Wednesday, environmentalists and fiscal conservatives joined hands at Mission Bay Park to press for regional water conservation measures that will reduce demand on the overdrawn Colorado River.
The local event was part of a campaign across the Southwest by the nonprofit group Save the Colorado. It was held Wednesday to commemorate the naming of the river on July 25, 1921. Representatives from San Diego Coastkeeper and San Diego County Taxpayers Association highlighted a letter they will send to state and federal officials calling for conservation and efficiency to meet future water demand instead of elaborate schemes such as importing icebergs from Alaska. “Extracting all the value we can from each drop of water we already have is in the best interest of ratepayers,” said Lani Lutar, president and CEO of the taxpayers group.
