About Epopeia

We are living through a time of uncertainty, an old system slowly dying and a new system not yet established. There’s immense potential for human development in this shift (though it can feel breathtaking and chaotic). Let us use this time of Turning and design a culture for a better tomorrow - with a project that builds on the global eco-village movement and takes it one step further, creating a functional, thriving society.

What is Epopeia? A meta-community, bringing this movement to the next level. How? By creating new structures (a community of communities, a family of communities) that can hold thousands of people while being locally grounded, and responsibly taking care for each other and our home planet. We create a new, complex society that can sustain itself. It reaches the systemic level and is able to take decisions to the next scale.

How do we start? We found the perfect space in Galicia. We outlined the vision. It’s far from complete, it will evolve with all the people that come. Now we need you, we invite you, to contribute and come here. There will be an open core team holding and facilitating the vision of Epopeia. But Epopeia needs people, groups of individuals, friends, families, tribes to become a society. We will start to build the web of community by inviting people and their projects, that, aligned with our values, fit into this developing society. We will start small-scale and move towards greater levels of complexity, thereby transforming the wider region while respecting its roots.

Project application is open! We are looking for projects to start the journey. Projects could be a local bakery, a permaculture garden with workshops, a research project on spiritual development, a kindergarden, a 3D printing business, a summer festival, … all a village, a city, a society could need can be offered.

Your life mission is to bring something special to the world? Aligned with the values of Epopeia, you aim to create something beautiful, whether big or small, and are looking for a space? Get in touch!
