Lokale plannen voor #verduurzaming kunnen leiden tot conflict met en ook tussen inwoners. Bovendien kunnen ze in strijd zijn met andere doelstellingen. Hoe gaat u als gemeente om met lokale duurzaamheidsconflicten in de #energietransitie? Volg ons webinar: https://t.co/roU4jyvSfy

Hoe kunnen we peer-to-peer communicatie inzetten in de #warmtetransitie? Of wellicht doe je dit al! Praat volgende week mee tijdens het webinar van @VNGemeenten en @milieucentraal. Meldt je aan via: https://t.co/WV51YouWGS

Happy to share my latest research article in @ELSenviron journal: I found that ties of mutual respect/understanding are more likely to lead to social learning in stakeholder networks. #SNA #socialnetworks #climateadaptation

Belangrijke uitspraak die de trucs van gemeente Amsterdam om fossiele warmtenetten van Vattenfall voorrang boven duurzamer alternatieven te geven naar prullenbak verwijst. Flinke kras op het groene imago: https://t.co/6ZBMtsWmJI via @parool

Listening to the #communitiesforfuture summit from @GEN_Ecovillages : the talk with @fred_laloux about reinventing organisations is the most inspiring talk I have heard in a long time. How we can all find the courage to start walking a pathway of integrity. I highly recommend it

Its tomato season and at Sunny Hill #ecovillage so we spend the morning preserving some of their delicious, organic, sunripened tomato's! We boil some of them to make salsa and others we dry. The view from the outdoor kitchen makes the work feel like holiday :)

[Ilonka Marselis @ilonkamarselis]

Making spinach quiche at Sunny Hill #ecovillage in Slovenia! I milled the local, organic spelt to make flower and handpicked the swiss chard from their #organic #permaculture garden. Swiss chard is similar to but grows better than spinach in this hot, dry climate

[Ilonka Marselis @ilonkamarselis]

On my expedition along #ecovillages I do not fly, so getting from central Finland to the @GENEurope #ecovillageconference in Italy has been quite a journey!! I came through Helsinki, Stockholm, Gdansk, Prague & Florence, now waiting for my last bus in Siena

[Ilonka Marselis @ilonkamarselis]

Had an inspiring time at Katajamäki #ecovillage in central Finland, a #community which supports traditional and tribal healing practices. These hold valuable knowledge of collaborating with local biodiversity to support livelihoods.

How can we balance energy #prosumption in #communityenergy?
Excited about our @Proseu_Project Living Lab workshop today at Earthship @Aardehuis_Oost about the challenges of #peakshaving at household & neighborhood level @fraaije @FerdiHummelink @Paul_Hendriksen @drifteur

#community effort can make work go fast; at vaunumaki #ecovillage in one fun day we made a fence around the vegetable garden to keep the deers from eating the crops. Putting hands together for a shared problem

[Ilonka Marselis @ilonkamarselis]

The Finnish national television came to Vaunumaki #ecovillage to document a moveable art project. The self-built house is a statement that housing can be creative, healthy & loan-free, using reclaimed and natural materials, allowing to spend time with children rather than working

[Ilonka Marselis @ilonkamarselis]

At vaunumaki #ecovillage they live in close collaboration with their local ecosystem. Drinking water they get from a beautiful small spring close to their land. Living like this creates appreciation of nature & humbleness with regards to polluting or impacting the land!
