Our community is cultivating our home, and permanent Zuvillage location, in Switzerland's beautiful Interlaken region.\n\nZuitzerland is the start of an experimental long-term Zuzalu node that has the opportunity to be the first of several permanent nodes and pioneer citizens, forming a living laboratory and experimental village in Interlaken Labs (code name for the planned new village).\n\nLearning from the Swiss model of direct democracy which for centuries has embraced decentralised governance, we’re setting out to provide a pathway to iterating on practical models for fusing techno-optimism and social stability. From Day 1, Zuitzerland aims to trial practical d/acc social systems and models of residence and citizenship, to develop lasting network societies.\n\n![Zuitzerland's concept](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1008017683654119465/1263191889545527388/image.png?ex=6699569f&is=6698051f&hm=e7a6d4e65d0cb4b458cbf7260842a5e498fb257aff38a7bcb4263cb3484258ca&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1100&height=614)\n\nNext Gen Village is building a Living Lab for DAO governance and tokenomics, in a real-world experimental environment, building and simulating a micro-economy.

Details to be finalised together.\n \n### 2025 Plans:\n\n- Given the longer-term partnership we have planned with the Next Gen Village,  at their Interlaken Labs location, we are already drafting plans to host a longer and even more collaborative 2 month event in 2025\n\n- Our 2025 vision includes further collaboration with other Zuzalu nodes and pop-up village organisers as well as heavy involvement of Swiss organisations and cooperatives such as Lugano Plan B, InnHub La Punt, Impact Hub and many many more.\n\n- In 2025, we have the potential to host 400+ residents given size of the location\n\n\n## Existing fundraising\n\n- The value of receiving the Interlaken Labs location at no cost is around EUR 600k for the 3 weeks\n\n- Existing funding ca. 4 ETH from Q1 funding (as ZuLead)\n\n### So much room for activities\n\n-   We’re taking over 100,000m2 of conference / event infrastructure: ready to convert it into a permanent village and living labs experiment in governance, crypto economic models and regenerative living. \n-   There is A LOT of indoors space to camp and create makeshift working and sleeping areas, in a truly experimental and creative format - we can make this our own\n-   From the party pyramid - decked out for discos, to the circular AV room where we can host debates and the smaller event space in the tower, there is so much we can design, build and create here - and some things might be able to be kept permanently for our longer-term Zuitzerland node\n\n## About the Interlaken Labs space\n\n![enter image description here](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1008017683654119465/1263190614640558211/image.png?ex=6699556f&is=669803ef&hm=ebe2932a4628dcad6df2fc40a3e6632fa58cde964bae2fcd144745fd77a8dca3&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1100&height=616)\n\n- Includes a central tower, which has three 300m2 event spaces, an office floor, and canteen area, bathrooms for visitors, and in a circular village surrounding the tower there are multiple large conference halls where contributors can host many interesting unconference experiments\n- Commercial kitchen (for which we can hire caterers to staff and provide meals for residents)\n- Parking for hundreds of vehicles / campervans / trucks / buses and (even) planes\n- There's even an airstrip next door that we can likely use to test electric planes or futuristic vehicles\n-  Depending on funding and community ideas, we are looking at bringing in additional (currently missing) infrastructure for 2024.\n\n## Next Gen Village's Plans \n\n-NGV is taking the next 3-5 years to plan and build a futuristic city and living lab with its pioneer citizens, and community nodes. In the short-term we're working with them on ensuring:\n\n- Sufficient accommodation showers and bathrooms for 100+ people to live for 6+ weeks. In 2024, people will need to stay in local hotels / hostels until this infrastructure is built)\n\n- Turning Interlaken Labs into a special place for our community - it's pretty basic for now as it was built 20-30 years ago and needs renovation \n\n- This room for improvement is also an opportunity to make it our own and design the place our community will reside.\n\n![Interlaken Labs in a few years](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1008017683654119465/1263191322811043980/image.png?ex=66995618&is=66980498&hm=7de24c42e143e17a7820a04b6688c6ca33eef7a9006e338f81ac2e9733ae395f&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1100&height=592)\n\n![Next Gen Village Future](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1008017683654119465/1263193533880205353/image.png?ex=66995827&is=669806a7&hm=587b36fdec7e84780adc371b8886db7de0f5c289b29b34ff90d7c002112796d9&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1100&height=612)\n\n\n### Core contributors\n\n**Kaia** - Tech @ BIEN, Economist, Community Governance Advocate\n**Alberto** - Tech..Smart contract engineer @ Curve EPFL\n**Una** - Strategy / Curation, PhD researcher @ ETH zurich, R&D @ Casper (L1 protocol), Contributor @DAOSUISSE @DAOVOZ, Zuzalian\n**Isla** - Strategy / Curation…DAO Suisse, Zuzalian, Contributor  @DAO Suisse @Auditless @UniswapFND @FTW DAO @DAOVOZ\n**Yesh** - PM, ALLFED.
