Embedded in the professional training ‘Intervención Sustentable del Hábitat Humano: Los Territorios Descentrados como Polos de Acción’ CoCoon gave a workshop in the ‘Casa de la Ciuda’ in Oaxaca de Juárez, Mexico. It took place from the 27th to the 30th of October with a lecture the 30th at 07 p.m.

The course included site visits to the “Centro de Apoyo al Movimiento Popular Oaxaqueño”, C.A.M.P.O., an NGO in Oaxaca who is collaboration partner of CoCoon for more than 10 years, an interview with Graciela García Reyes, former President of the women cooperative Naxií (Project: Jam Manufactory Naxií 2012) and a site visit to the CoCoon-Project “Escuela de Musica” in Ocotlan de Morelos (2003 and 2007), where rehabilitation strategies for the compound and the organisation-structure have been developed.

It was a pleasure to work with the 32 participants, professionals in Architecture, Technical and Regional Development, Biology, Civil Engineering, Natural Resources and Environmental Engineering that formed an interested, powerful group
