SOL Community is an independent forum set up to serve the needs of One Living
Planet.
“Eco-” comes from the Greek word “ikos” which means “household”.
With the words “eco-nomy” and “eco-logy” the Ancient Greeks show they realised
the connection between their own daily lifestyles and the bigger picture.
This realisation calls for active participation for all.
We comprise a network of members and specialists that you can be introduced to,
in order to meet, exchange ideas, listen, collaborate and share ideas and contacts
that may be relevant to your career, enterprise or organisational needs.

advantage of family bookings for walking holidays, leisure activities and retreat
centre vacations, not just in Greece but at recommended venues that share our
ethos.
The savings you can make, more than cover the cost of membership.

events by invitation.
