Training Course
19-26 June 2024 | Ecovillaggio Torri Superiore, Italy
CONTENT
Faced with the question of what are the biggest obstacles to collaboration, many of us tend to give the same answer: the others. This reflects the way we have learnt to focus on the distances that separate us rather than value our intellectual diversity, that is the ways in which each of us is uniquely gifted, the way we process information and formulate questions, and what engages and inspires us.
This training will provide tools for collaborative intelligence, which starts from the valorisation of everyone's cognitive styles (auditory, visual, kinesthetic). We will focus in particular on graphic facilitation as a tool to support participation in collaborative projects.
TOPICS AND METHODS
VENUE
The mediaeval village of Torri Superiore is a small jewel of popular architecture located at the foothill of the Ligurian Alps, a few kilometres from the Mediterranean Sea and the French border, close to the coastal town of Ventimiglia. Originating in the thirteenth century, the village is structured in three main bodies with more than 160 rooms, all connected by an intricate fabric of stairways.
Its complex structure has often been compared to a fortress or a labyrinth, perched on the mountainside. The village has been entirely restored and is now open to ecotourism, for courses, meetings and programs of environmental education, and offers accommodation for stays and vacations.
For its character of historical complex, unfortunately the ecovillage is not completely accessible. Please take this into account when planning your participation.

Ture Nirvane Cooperativa Sociale di Comunità (Others)
Ture Nirvane Società Cooperativa a r.l. was founded in 1999 to transform the abandoned mediaeval village of Torri Superiore (13th century) into a thriving ecovillage centred on a holistic vision of sustainability that includes ecological, economic, social and cultural dimensions. The restoration of the ecovillage continued until 2016 and the transformation into a Social Community Cooperative in 2020 allowed the cooperative to fully realise its vocation of social innovation and synergy with the territory. The cooperative now runs a guesthouse that has been completely renovated and is open to the public, where people can learn about the resident community's activities and take part in volunteering activities, courses, workshops and various involvement opportunities that bring together visitors and the local community.
