Transizione Il Boschetto Inc

Nel nord-ovest di Brisbane, questa Transition Town opera attivamente dal 2010.

Adottiamo un approccio "di portafoglio" per costruire la resilienza nella nostra area locale, definita dai sobborghi del bacino idrografico superiore del Kedron Brook (Everton Hills, Arana Hills, Ferny Hills, Ferny Grove, Upper Kedron, Keperra, Grovely, Mitchelton, Gaythorne e parte di Enoggera).

We look at local health, lifelong learning, environment, energy, governance, water, transport, culture, building, natural resources, business & finance, recreation, food production, security, facilities, waste reduction & building non-renewable resources locally, and soil.

Over the years, we have contributed in a variety of ways in The Grove. Our Constitution is designed to allow us to support new local initiatives get started.

Our current major initiative is Repair Cafe The Grove, which started in August 2022 and is a vibrant event on the fourth Saturday morning of each month 9am-noon at the Grovely-Mitchelton Scout Hall. We also joined the Men’s Shed Association and are a Men’s Shed, and we get our insurance cover through them.

We find that supportive relationships between members are a key to resilience, so we meet in our homes taking turns as hosts, share meals, visit each other socially and become friends including each other in our lives, share resources, help each other, and build trust and affection.

We mix deep philosophical and experiential learning about resilience and are on a journey. We belong to other local groups and are very active in our community.

We have developed serious expertise and understanding of the concept of ‘local’ which we think is a very powerful concept to apply in our lives.
