In today's episode, we will be exploring experimental societies such as Auroville that we visited recently and stayed there for a month. We will delve into what an experimental society is, the alternative ways of living it provide, its relationship with sustainability in the context of climate change, and how it inspires us to make changes in our own society. Our guest, Jane, a member of a Spanish experimental society, will join us, along with my partner, Luciana, who is currently researching post-development society at the Humboldt University of Berlin. We will discuss the challenges and rewards of being part of such a community and how these communities can help us rethink our current reality.

Well, this was about Auroville. Further, we will focus more on other kinds of alternative societies in and outside of India. And I hope it comes out to be interesting, so stay tuned for an interesting conversation and let’s start the podcast.
