The Commune (alternative communities)

Communes are intentional communities where people choose to live and work together based on shared values, goals, or interests. Members often collaborate closely, sharing resources, responsibilities, and decision-making, aiming to create a supportive and sustainable environment. These communities can vary widely, from rural farms to urban co-housing projects, and may focus on ideals like environmental sustainability, social equality, or spiritual growth. The primary goal is fostering a sense of collective well-being and cooperation, offering an alternative to traditional individualistic living arrangements by emphasizing community bonds and mutual support.
