Do we really know how to cooperate?
Facing these realities, La Maison Passerelle explores another path: learning again to cooperate, between humans and with the living world.
The project
La Maison Passerelle is part of a worldwide network. It is a place to experiment with a culture of regenerative cooperation for humans, living beings and Earth.
Regenerate soils, biomass and ecosystems. Reconnect humans with nature. Leave room for Nature, with a Permaculture applied to humans.
Improve human relationships through tools that foster a high degree of cooperation. Coaching, mediation, relational clarity practices.
Cultivate the art of feedback, artistic creation and scientific research as vectors for personal evolution and societal inspiration.
Embodying a Culture of Cooperation!
Our work in the field
Exploring the bond between humans and nature, transforming agricultural practice. Supporting individuals & citizen collectives (coming soon: companies through transformative CSR).
Sanctuarising natural spaces, strengthening the human bond with other living species.
Relational clarity, conflict resolution, immersion in cooperation, discovering and practising emotional intelligence.
Demonstrating that cooperation works by producing resources born from our research: articles, podcasts, videos, shareable tools.
We offer discovery workshops open to everyone, in collaboration with actors engaged in the regeneration of the territory.
The land
A place has been found in Bagnères-de-Bigorre, in the French Pyrenees: one hectare to host life, research and hospitality.
