    Ariadne Gaia Foundation

    Gaia Research and Education Center for Sustainable Rural Development

    Gulga Farm

    Galgaháeviz

    Hungary

    The Gaia Foundation, or more precisely, the Gaia Research and Education Center for Sustainable Rural Development, has been the incubator and sponsor of many cooperative and ecological projects. One of its ongoing activities is training. A conference and education center was built to provide training for farmers-not only in the Galga Farm cooperative, but also throughout the Galga Valley region-in organic and sustainable agricultural methods. Farmers attend weekend workshops at the center, as it is hard for them to leave their work for more than a few days. Occasionally center staff members go out to the farms to bring the training to people who need it. 180 to 250 farmers are trained each year.

The Gaia Foundation

      18 Well Walk,
      Hampstead,
      London NW3 1LD

The Gaia Foundation is an international non-government organisation (NGO) based in London. Its mission is the protection of cultural and biological diversity, and democracy. Gaia began work in the Amazon when they were invited by Chico Mendes, a famous rubber tapper leader who was later assassinated, and Ailton Krenak, a well known indigenous leader, to form an "affectionate alliance" with them. Since then Gaia has formed an alliance with indigenous groups in Colombia through the COAMA (Consolidation of the Amazon Region) Programme which has now been running for 11 years. The COAMA programme last year won the Right Livelihood Award for "Vision and Work forming an essential contribution to making life more whole, healing our planet and uplifting humanity".

    The Gaia Institute

    440 City Island Ave

    Bronx NY USA

    The Gaia Institute is a 501(c) 3 not-for-profit corporation. Focused on environmental research and development, education and design, our work is centered on the restoration and ecological re-engineering of natural systems to protect and enhance environmental quality. The work of the Gaia Institute couples ecological engineering and restoration with the integration of human communities in natural systems. While much environmental engineering has the worthy aim of minimizing harm, the Gaia Institute explores, through research and development, design and construction, how human activities and waste products can be treated to increase ecological productivity, biodiversity, environmental quality, and economic well being. The purpose of the Gaia Institute is to test through demonstration the means by which the ecological components of backyards, communities, towns and cities, as well as watersheds and estuaries, can be enhanced through integrated wastes-into-resources technologies.
