In Morocco, the NGO called Terre & Humanisme Maroc has created a training center for agro-ecology not far from Marrakech. To the extent that our meagre finances allow, we support initiatives that share our values of humanism and respect for living things and biodiversity.
This is a small fund associated with the economic model proposed by Schumaker in his book, Small Is Beautiful. An endowment fund was created in 2013 with the aim of raising funds so that we could help. Q: In recent years you have also supported other projects that spread the same values as yours, especially in Crete and Morocco. This growth has accelerated because now libraries and bookshops are full of books that take note of our human excesses, but now people want to act, to find solutions, and this is what Colibris offers! In short, there are so many things, and I am very happy today about the work accomplished and the number of projects that have been implemented. To highlight just a few, we have the series, Domaine du Possible, published by Actes Sud, some of which is co-published by Colibris many local action groups the University of Colibris which offers free online training on eco-construction, permaculture, agro-ecology and education and finally Fabrique, which is a platform for everyone to do their bit by offering time, talent, material resources and donations in the service of inspiring projects. These days, Colibris implements so many projects that I would have a hard time presenting them all to you. Today, Colibris has grown enormously! It has three main objectives: to inspire, to connect and to support citizens engaged in individual and collective transition processes. PR: In 2007, along with several friends, including Cyril Dion and Isabelle Desplats, we decided to create a grass roots movement for active reflection and practical ways to build a greener and more humane society. Does the creation of Colibris in 2007 fit into this scheme? How did this movement start, and how do you explain its incredible development? Q: In the first part of this interview, you said that your approach and action developed in 3 ways: through philosophical reflections about society, a spiritual quest and a practical approach.
In particular, he speaks about the pressing need for moderation and reduction in human consumption, and the importance of transcendent love and joy.
In part 2 of this exclusive interview with PIERRE RABHI, he speaks about Colibris and some of the other projects he has taken up to bring awareness and change in society.
