Auroville is the Mother’s Dream – an international township dedicated to Human Unity inspired by Sri Aurobindo’s future-forward vision. A sacred trust, its future is held in our hands today. Join the A4A action for the City Area’s 4 zones around the Matrimandir! Land is urgently needed for the FUTURE – NOW!
On February 7th , the ‘Landing Auroville Celebration’ held at the Unity Pavillion provided a rich program and was an encouraging success! Organised by the joint land fundraising teams of Acres for Auroville, GreenAcres and LFAU the event’s central message was the sacredness of the land, and the need for an intense collective effort to acquire land in Auroville’s Master Plan area now.
The Acres for Auroville campaign is gratified that the green area of Mahalakshmi Park was expanded thanks to the plot acquisition financed by the solidarity of A4A donors!

Beside sunlight, air and water, food is a component, which we can’t categorize as a 2nd priority for our needs to keep the body alive. At present the whole world including Tamil Nadu drifts towards a general food availability crisis.
The first target of A4A’s action had been to raise funds for missing plots in the Matrimandir Area and the International Zone. By the end of the first year, the campaign has achieved two major successes.
On 15th of August 2015, the Green Acres campaign.
It gives us great pleasure to announce the first land acquisition made possible by the Acres for Auroville campaign, a joint action of Auroville International with Lands for Auroville Unified – LFAU.
