Communities Magazine

Life in Cooperative Culture

Since 1972, the primary resource for information, issues, stories, and ideas about intentional communities, cooperative culture, and bringing community into daily life--both in North America and around the world.

Our 80-page quarterly magazine is chockful of information, inspiration, and personal stories about how to build and sustain community--whether an ecovillage or a neighborhood; whether a cohousing community or a workplace. We help you where you are.

Our articles examine the successes and also the challenges, highlighting the invaluable lessons learned along the way. If you are part of a group, we can help you live and work together more cooperatively; if you are an individual or family looking for community, we can inspire your search.

Each issue is organized around a theme--recent ones include Ecovillages, Diversity, Spirituality, Permaculture, Right Livelihood, and Intimacy. See communities.ic.org to read a selection of articles from each issue and for information about advertising, submissions and more.
