Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Denmark cohousing contacts for visiting?

[Ann Zabaldo (zabaldo]

Fred -- my understanding is like yours -- no organization or  
association re: cohousing in Denmark.  They've long given up on  
conferences and workshops.  Last one held in late '90's I believe.  
Chuck Durrett would have more info on this.  Perhaps w/ the advent of  
Sr. cohousing there IS an organization of some kind as it's such a  
new animal at the watering hole.  Certainly haven't heard of one  
however.
