"Adahy Wakiza" (formed from the Cherokee words for "Lives in the Woods" and "Determined Warrior") will be a Wildlife Sanctuary, Nature Reserve, Intentional Community, Eco-Village, Spiritual Retreat and Humane and Environmental Sustainability Education Center on 166+ acres of pristine tropical rainforest in the country of Belize, Central America. It is to be the first pod of the Sylvestria Eco-Village Network. The principles of Sylvanism will be adopted as a core philosophical structure of Adahy Wakiza. Sylvanism is the belief that humanity can control it's evolutionary destiny in more creative and positive ways than what has been displayed to date. We can change from Homo Sapiens Sapiens or "man who knows that he knows" (but doesn't necessarily know what he knows or what to do with it!) to Homo Sapiens Sylvestris or "Wise man of the forests" who listens to his accumulated knowledge and uses it to live in accord with and respect the forests of the world and their inhabitants, both animal and plant.
Adahy Wakiza social structure will be a primal living, primitivist (a la the writings of John Zerzan, Derrick Jensen, and Daniel Quinn et al), anarchistic, egalitarian, pre-agrarian, non-dominionistic.
