CIGLE FÉ-SZEK Mezőgazdasági vegyes gazdálkodású KÖZÖSSÉGI ÉS TÁRSADALMI CÉLÚ SZOCIÁLIS SZÖVETKEZET

The goal of our organization is to operate a stable and self-sustaining social cooperative that, by combining several economic activities, creates safe local workplaces and enables socio-economic activities to be carried out in harmony with each other at micro-regional level. All, but at least as broad as possible, involvement of the local community in joint action in order to create sustainable social well-being and to organize producer-consumer communities. Our main topics are: energy self-sufficiency, housing, food and water self-determination, education and training. We organize educational activities in collaboration with other partners within the framework of the PR-VET, "New paths in vocational training" project, supported by the Danish Velux, typically for people with special educational needs (SEN), ADHD. The eco-social farm, under construction in the outskirts of Cegléd, coordinated by our organization, provides an important practical location for their training as well. In addition to this function of the farm, we are working to create a complex knowledge center based on a sustainable lifestyle, which seeks alternative solutions to social challenges such as; energy and food self-sufficiency; the use of traditional, sustainable, environmentally friendly building materials and techniques; creating housing alternatives for sensitive social groups; or the development of a sustainable and local job-generating tourist destination.
