With about 1,000 citizens and members worldwide, Damanhur has been active since 1975 and has its own complementary currency system, constitution and schools. Damanhur was given the Sustainable Community Award as a model for a sustainable future by the UN Global Human Settlements Forum. The citizens of Damanhur created the underground Temples of Humankind, a vast sacred space dug into a mountain with breathtaking visionary artwork to reawaken the Divine Spark.
