Why do you think this project is appropriate for the course assignment?

EcoVilla set out to create a replicable regenerative community - one that successfully revitalized a specific place while providing a blueprint for how to revitalize similar places and communities around the world. Did they succeed? Where did they compromise? Is it living up to the vision they held at the start? EcoVilla offers a compelling case study.
