We the Villagers' Mission Charter

This imperfect manifesto reflects the hopes, sufferings and misunderstandings of those who inspired it. Les Grands Voisins were born in the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul hospital in the 14th arrondissement in Paris, between Port Royal and the Catacombs. We were born out of the cracks in concrete and in public policy. We are open, inclusive and at the service of welcoming all. We believe in bridges between utopia and reality.

The Neighbors

The Neighbors wrote mission papers together with over 100 people over a period of over a month. LesGrandsVoisins.com have retained a version edited in 2017 by Chris Mann that below. We have co-owner neighbors listed and just Neighbors we'd like to mention. We might even give you your space to express yourself there.

Become a Neighbor

Does our model seem to you to be effective?

Become a co-owner of Les Grands Voisins by taking out a subscription for SSEs, local public authorities, private actors and event professionals.

Votes - Governance

The way to do it is already what we do. Neighborhood Councils are opportunities for both Neighbors and Big Neighbors to strengthen our bonds and our futures.

Presentation

LesGrandsVoisins.com proposes a mechanism for sharing common goods. For example, Neighbors bars can exhibit the works of Neighbors artists. Neighboring merchants can share a common loyalty system for their customers. Today, we have set up internet servers to share based on free software and with the label "The contract for the web" (email, virtual meetings, drive cloud, etc.). The commons are managed together whether they are online or in person.
