Volume 3 of Wisdom of Communities is about Communication in Community: Resources and Stories about the Human Dimension of Cooperative Culture. It includes articles about decision-making, governance, power, gender, class, race, relationships, intimacy, politics, and neighbor relations in cooperative group culture. These areas are key for communities to address if they are to retain members and develop strong and healthy group connection.

In Volume 4 of Wisdom of Communities, we focus on Sustainability in Community: Resources and Stories about Creating Eco-Resilience in Intentional Community. This book focuses on food, water, shelter, energy, land, permaculture, ecovillage design, eco-education, and resilience in cooperative culture. These areas will prove more and more essential in allowing communities to navigate changing circumstances on our planet, while growing into new, regenerative ways of living and thriving together.
