About.

Auroville wants to be a universal town where men and women of all countries are able to live in peace and progressive harmony above all creeds, all politics and all nationalities. The purpose of Auroville is to realise human unity.

The following charter describes the intentions behind the project:

* Auroville belongs to nobody in particular. Auroville belongs to humanity as a whole. But, to live in Auroville, one must be a willing servitor of the Divine Consciousness.

* Auroville will be the place of an unending education, of constant progress, and a youth that never ages.Auroville wants to be the bridge between the past and the future. Taking advantage of all discoveries from without and from within, Auroville will boldly spring towards future realisations.

* Auroville will be a site of material and spiritual researches for a living embodiment of an actual human unity.

There are over 3000 residents from over 50 different countries in Auroville and as many answers to the question "what is Auroville?" so here are a list of links you can follow to find our more:

It is a basic accomodation in a forest run by young people. Priority is given to volunteers who contribute to activities at the Youth Center.

The Youth Centre, also known as Peaceful City, is located behind the Town Hall. It is a place where youth of all ages and backgrounds can collectively and constructively come together to relax, work, learn practical life skills and play. We welcome people who want to spontaneously take initiative and build up the community.

Whether it is with helping and maintaining, managing the kitchen and cooking for the people working there or with building sustainable community spaces or sharing whatever skills people main have.

Most of the projects are sef-motivated, there is no ONE person in charge, best is to drop by the Youth Center to know about the current activities.
