Main issues of an AgroCity:
No tribal or religious seclusion/separation
A peaceful cooperation between a variety of ethical and cultural mixes will be forged to create the AgroCities. Members will be expected to nourish themselves with 2/3 of the produce while contributing the remaining 1/3 to use for trading in merchandise or service.
Educational and medical facilities will be free of charge.
Socio-cultural amenities and activities like health, sport and religious centers will be build through the spirit of sister- and brotherhood – Umoja- with the social network of members and neighbours all chipping in the physical activities. With time AgroCities are meant to attract sponsors, scientists, tourists, friends & families.
The Implementation of an AgroCity consists of two elements:
- Source / Fundament
- Implementation of AgroCity.
