Familia Feliz is a decentralized living community with shared economy. Decentralized means those people live together who want to do so. The community does not dictate where a member should live or that all members have to live in one place at all times. Instead, it is part of the concept of Familia Feliz to live in different countries and different places. We start in Spain and Germany as these are the countries we already live and call our homes. Our community life is based on a shared economy, decisions by consensus, veto for each and solidarity with each member. We respect and develop private property and focus on life in peace and freedom.
Familia Feliz is organized in units. A unit can be a working unit like “bio garden” or a company run by members, as well as a a home unit, a group of members living in one house.
One main mission is to create a contemporary version of community structure, which implies sustainability, international exchange (we speak Spanish, English, German, French) and socio-cultural projects. The focus also is on establishing ways of self-supply (bio garden, chicken, fruit farming).

The main economic principle of our community can be described as “making gifts”. Every member offers power, money and ressources to make contributions. But they decide for themselves on every single occasion how much they can or are willing to contribute or donate. So there is no rule to exchange this for that, no comparison in value of any gift between members. And there is no “right to take” or “fee to contribute”.
