Famillages are family partnerships.

Families are shrinking. (See the facts here and here)

Famillages create opportunities and they find novel solutions ...
They let kids learn languages, find internships and jobs, let parents combine child care with holidays and make sure they all find a home from home with a warm welcome. And we take any bet, you will also find a wealth of new ideas you've never considered so far. Dive into the story book to get a taste!

Extended Family in the 21st century
|
|
Your family is "not-the-norm"? You're in good company then.
We all know that institutions and businesses have to follow standards. However, a famillage doesn't. A family's strengths and needs come in all shapes and sizes and in all combinations. From family to family they can be fostered, encouraged, supported and challenged when the time is right. Famillages give parents a powerful new framework. |
Shared Mindspace
Shared Mindspace takes student exchange into the 21st century. It lets teenagers swap families and school classes, it lets them trade places to exchange their homes, cultures and languages. Simultaneously. In other words: It gives every kid the opportunity to venture out into the world, regardless of budgets and bureaucratic barriers. |
Famillage Holidays!We all know: Holiday child care is often a necessity.
And of course: Language holidays are a tremendous bonus. Both are expensive. Unless you combine them! |
