Recently, Jay Naidoo, an ex-freedom fighter from South Africa, visited Auroville and addressed an important question to the youth: “You say you are open to everyone and invite people from all over the world, but have you actually created an environment where African people can integrate into the community?”

Since July this year, Auroville Green Practices (AGP), a community organisation managed by Auroville Consulting, has been hosting numerous webinars, with over 1,500 people participating on more than a dozen topics, such as zero waste, upcycling, water management, vegan raw food, permaculture, and earth architecture, natural building technologies, Ferro-cement, solar energy, and many more.

The A4A team reports on the results of supporters’ solidarity.

Higher education and learning opportunities have been on the minds of many groups such as the Centre for International Research on Human Unity (CIRHU), Auroville Campus Initiative (ACI), Auroville Consulting, and Youth Link, all of which have focused on linking learners with a myriad of existing resources within the community.

Continuing the series of talks with young Aurovilians about their life in and work in Auroville, Jonas Suchanek, a young Aurovilian who has returned to Auroville recently and joined Tree Care, shares his thoughts on his life and what it means to be a young working Aurovilian today.
