Ethos

Off Grid is a 100% participatory event collaboratively self-organised by the volunteer-led crews behind Sunrise and Cloud Cuckoo Land.

Behind the scenes, Off Grid is designed according to One Planet Living principles. The intention is to build community resilience and empower individuals, in order to inspire both local abundance and global sustainability. 

The Upcycle is their circular economic plan with responsibility shared by everyone who attends the event.
