I have been an active member of the Italian Ecovillage Network since 2012, I had the honour of being its co-president, and now I am in charge of community and member relations and collaborate on the revision of the organisation.
I adhere to and collaborate with the diffused community of the "Piumani" *
As a facilitator and trainer I currently accompany established and developing community groups.
For more than 25 years I have been passionate about the arts of inner transformation and research, which I have pursued in various ways in contact with body, mind, emotions and energies.
