Date: 23/03/2016

Julia Milne set up Common Unity Project Aotearoa, showing how communities can grow their own food together, share resources, create employment and empower themselves given the right support.

CUPA supports community driven micro-social enterprises that are locally owned and networked with one another, including a bicycle recovery and repair shop, a bee-keeping operation, cooking classes, a sewing workshop, healthcare clinic, a natural skincare range, and a vegetable garden that feeds a school three days a week.
