<p>The Neighbors wrote mission papers together with over 100 people over a period of over a month. LesGrandsVoisins.com have retained a version edited in 2017 by Chris Mann that below. We have co-owner neighbors listed and just Neighbors we'd like to mention. We might even give you your space to express yourself there.</p>
<h2>Mission of the Good Villagers</h2>
<p>This manifesto, imperfect, reflects the hopes, sufferings and misunderstandings of those who breathed it in. Les Grands Voisins was born at the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul hospital in the 14th arrondissement in Paris, between Port Royal and the Catacombs. We emerged from the cracks in the concrete and in public policy. We are open, inclusive and at the service of welcoming all. We believe in bridges between utopia and reality.</p>
<p>We, like any good villager, do not always agree and we defend:</p>
<ul>
<li>parity in governance</li>
<li>the collective solution in good intelligence</li>
<li>free expression</li>
<li>artistic exercise</li>
<li>lifelong learning</li>
<li>&nbsp;the valuing of all forms of work.</li>
</ul>
<p>At Les Grands Voisins, we live, work, sleep, eat, care, shop, cry, laugh, and do it in all languages. Inclusion and exclusion go hand in hand. The other is an opportunity.</p>
<p>We demand places of social mix that allow the valorisation and the sharing of the knowledge and know-how of each and everyone. We call for places of social mixing that encourage listening and the possibility of meeting, conditions for the relaxation of the fear of the other. We demand places of social mix that fight against the "entre-soi", the isolation and the reduction of individuals to boxes.</p>
<p>We need places and time to make precedent, to be able to invent other forms of society in harmony with the ecosystems. We all have to give and receive.</p>
<p>[Great Neighbors Manifesto with contributions from a hundred people over a month of which this version is edited by Chris Mann in 2017 with a slight revision in 2020].</p>
<h2>The Villagers</h2>
<p>The institutional Great Neighbors are or will be:</p>
<ul>
<li>local public authorities ;</li>
<li><a href="/fr/voisins/ess">economic, cultural, artistic and artistic actors</a></li>
<li>social institutions ;</li>
<li>promoters, venues and restaurateurs</li>
</ul>
<p>You can claim to be a Great Neighbor independently of a membership to <a href="https://www.goodvillagers.com">GoodVillagers.com</a>. More than the management of common goods, the Big Neighbors are also ideals specific to each one.</p>
