THE BEAUTY OF COLLABORATION
There is a beauty in collaborations emerging in the watershed, bringing about evolutionary processes to the project, through interaction with, for example, project leaders, participants, local elders, and residents. To complement this interweaving of ideas and possibilities, Ekawa offers a degree of physical support to projects, in terms of place, context, tools, materials.
Timescales vary depending on what is needed to set a project in motion, bringing it to a place of wholeness within your stay.
AFTERWARDS
Beyond this initiation phase and depending on the particularities of each initiative, the intention is that the project is able to carry on and grow. If you wish to continue pioneering an idea after its creation we can begin a conversation about your longer-term part in Ekawa.
