What exists
A vision already tested in the real world.
- The territory of San Carlos
- The reserves, crops and activities
- The team and local relationships
- A living laboratory already in operation
- The first institutional lessons
Our horizon
Growing an endeavour that several generations can continue.
Pachatopia regenerates the ecological, human, economic and cultural conditions of life so that peace can take root again.
A direction, not a promise
Distinguishing what exists, what we are consolidating and what we want to pass on.
Our horizon does not erase the present. It begins with daily work, jobs, crops, the forest, local relationships and governance tools that still need to become more robust.
Our horizon is a generous Earth, where abundance is cultivated and shared, where people can live more freely, in better health and in relationship with the ecosystems that sustain them. The image of a Garden of Eden expresses this aspiration: rediscovering a conscious relationship with the living world and the source of life.
What we are consolidating
Giving continuity to what has taken root.
- Existing jobs and crops
- The agroforestry transition and biological fertilisers
- Processing and documentation
- Governance and traceability
- National structures
What we want to pass on
A heritage permanently dedicated to the common good.
- An international institution recognised for its public-interest purpose
- A network of living territories
- Training and research centres
- A shared memory of experience
- A cross-border European base
- A heritage permanently dedicated to the common good
Scaling with method
≈ €7 million
A horizon of capital to be mobilised progressively.
This amount is an order of magnitude for consolidating the Colombian territory, developing processing and traceability tools, structuring the institutions and preparing a cross-border European base.
It is neither an immediate fundraising pot nor a spectacular promise. Each step will have to be presented in phases, with budgets, objectives, responsibilities and verifiable results. No final allocation is announced before that work is done.
The future European base
A stronghold dedicated to life, knowledge and peace.
In the long term, Pachatopia envisions acquiring and restoring a historic estate surrounded by land in the French-Swiss cross-border region. No specific site has been chosen, and no acquisition has been decided or is imminent.
This place would be neither a private residence, a symbol of prestige nor a speculative property project. Its heritage would be dedicated to the mission and its transmission.
“In the past, strongholds protected territories and their people. Tomorrow, one of them could become a stronghold dedicated to life, knowledge and peace.”
