research-l Mailing List: Re: Welcoming new folks to our (Cohousing Research Network) listserv!

[Ann Zabaldo (zabaldo]

A Warm Welcome to all the new CRNs!

Do any of you live in cohousing or are you a member of a cohousing group?  I only ask so as not to make any suppositions.  You do not have to live or work in cohousing to be involved in this field.  In fact, it may be better in some cases if you don’t!  :-)

There are so many interesting aspects of cohousing to study — it’s like having a self-opening piñata of topics.  I don’t know who of you are attached to research institutions or in some way attached to the social sciences — you will find that cohousing has many unanswered questions about why people choose to join a coho group.  And why so many of them work so well while others struggle as well as what is the contributions cohousing makes to the larger community in which it resides.

Happy to have you aboard.

Onward!

Best --

It may be that when we no longer know what to do,
we have come to our real work
and when we no longer know which way to go,
we have begun our real journey.
The mind that is not baffled is not employed.
The impeded stream is the one that sings.

–Wendell Berry, “Our Real Work”
