Aldeia Arawikay
Antonio Carlos, Santa Catarina,
Brazil
 Aldea Arawikay expande sus raíces desde el año 2000 en tierras de Santa Catarina - Brasil con una forma de vida pacífica y con costumbres de una animada jornada de vida de campo dedicadas a los cuidados del entorno natural con profundidad ecologica.
Como iniciativa la vida aldeana es un sistema que sostiene procesos humanos individuales y grupales.
Sin la definición de una ideología única, escuela específica o una organización convencional, se concentra en el aprendizaje de un "aquí - ahora" integrado a un intercambio saludable con la vida natural reencontrando su modo de actuar, sentir y pensar el mundo.
Encaminamos a los peregrinos a profundizar su realidad de "especie" dentro del organismo mayor: Planeta Tierra pudiendo generar cambios sustanciales en si propio al desenvolver su sentimiento de "ser planetario e universal", valorando el significado y responsabilidad de su individualidad.
Actualmente el proyecto integral de Aldea Arawikay, entre otras inscripciones, entra en un mapa de Red de la Secretaría Nacional de Economía Solidaria-SENAES vinculado al Ministerio de Trabajo y Empleo como "Emprendimiento Autogestionário Informal". Actua tambien en la Red Ecovida de producion agroecologica con productos certificados.
En el medio del segundo ciclo (11 años) "Aldeia Arawikay" se mueve en dirección de un sistema deorganización humana en "Anillo Ecológico" en pequeña escala,
cuyo propósito es generar un núcleo de preservación ambiental, proyectos conjuntos,estudios referentes a biodiversidad y diversidad cultural humana en un vecindario rural ecológico y de apoyo mutuo.
En esta aventura aldeana los invitamos a nuestro cotidiano para una práctica de transformarnos en "guardianes" del planeta llevando este aprendizaje para cualquier hábitat, profesión o situación en que cada uno se encuentre.
"Arawi" significa: Canción
"Kay" significa: Ser
Componiendo así la metáfora en quechua:
"Canción del Ser"

Without the definition of a single ideology, specific school or a conventional organization, focuses on learning "here - now" a healthy exchange integrated with the natural life rediscovering the way they act, feel and think about the world.
Pilgrims headed to a deeper reality of "species" within the larger organism: Earth can generate substantial changes in himself to develop his sense of "being planetary and universal", assessing the meaning and responsibility of their individuality.
Currently the Village Arawikay comprehensive project, among other inscriptions, it enters a network map of the National Solidarity Economy-SENAES linked to the Ministry of Labor as "Self-Governing Informal Entrepreneurship." He also appeared in the agroecological Ecovida products or production certificates.

whose purpose is to generate a core of environmental preservation, joint projects, studies on biodiversity and human cultural diversity in a rural neighborhood ecological and mutual support.
In this adventure we invite you to our village every day for a practice to transform the "guardians" of the planet bringing this learning to any habitat, profession or situation in which each one is.
