The “Ecologic House” Centre for Environmental Education  (CEA) carries on in its new headquarters in Monte San Martino the experience of the historical “L’Altra Campana” (The other bell) CEA, later renamed Ecologic House, approved by the Administration of the Marche Region in March, 1999. The reference context of the CEA is the hinterland of Marche in the very heart of the “Blue Mountains”, on the places where the diffusion of naturalistic issues often refers to lifestyles belonging to the past generations, in times when strong ties existed between men and Nature. Here the “Ecologic House” aims at being the place (house) where people can better interact with each other and with the surrounding environment (ecologic).
The traditional practices of waste reduction, recycling materials and saving resources will be projected in the frame of the breakthrough circular economy which is imposing itself, nowadays, at all levels. The sober lifestyles will be dusted off and proposed, of times when the knowledge of natural resources permitted to play in the open, to eat spontaneous plants, to give value to all objects and live in a healthy and dynamic way. Mostly to the youngest, the meaning and the advantages will be highlighted that such memories can give their lives, as well as the knowledge of the rhythms and times of nature, and the larger possibilities offered by the scientific progress and  the current research methods.

A special attention will be paid in inviting the boys to be the protagonists of the experiences and, on their turn, to be propagators and carriers of knowledge with their peers and the adults.
