Please note that we are integrating the GlobalVillages Wiki into the WorkNets structure and so the urls are changing accordingly.

Global Villages in the special sense we chose to use this terms means a type of physical locality (mostly, but not exclusively, real villages or neighborhoods) where people make use of global communication possibilities to enhance rather than neglect the local. If you accept that premise, a world unfolds.

If we build a nonprofit Transitional/Holigent Urban Village on the bank of the revitalized Los Angeles River, would you come to live and work there? Would you be interested in holding your job for life or as long as you want it, living in an affordable high-rise home without fear of ever losing it, reducing your rent significantly with community credit earned in community service, and enjoying a high-quality, car-free lifestyle in a self-organized, safe and sustainable community? If you do, take action and Be Part of the Solution. Learn more at www.holigent.org
