Thus, in cooperation with other groups and associations, we have launched the project \u201cAllaximaria: Design and implementation of a standardised dry stone workshop\u201d<\/strong>In the local Amorgian dialect, the word \u201callaximaria\u201d refers to the exchange of goods and services without a monetary transaction. Inspired by this traditional financial and societal form, this year we are meeting with other associations, exchanging experiences, thoughts and ideas, in order to design a standardised dry stone workshop, which will be able to be reproduced, ensuring quality and educational specifications.The ultimate goal is to incorporate this standardised model in a wider and institutionally secured training and certification scheme, which will cover this imperative need, particularly in remote areas.<\/p>\nGroups from Tinos, Sifnos, Naxos, as well as the team of Boulouki<\/a><\/strong>, have responded to our call for cooperation. After the first online meetings, where the general scope of the work was set, examples from abroad were considered and the direction of the current work was decided, the working group, comprised of members of the Mitato of Amorgos, the Association Ambasada<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(Tinos Island) and Boulouki, met on the island of Sifnos from 30 May to 1 June 2025. On 26 and 27 June 2025, we visited the island of Iraklia, for a first research for the pilot dry stone workshop which will take place there in October 2025, implementing the designed standardised workshop. Currently, the working group is working on research and the final design of the model, aiming at completing this theoretical stage by the end of the summer.<\/p>\n \n \u2014\u2013: \u0317\u0300\u279b<\/strong> As a result of the above works, we are extremely pleased to announce the organisation of the pilot dry stone workshop of \u201cAllaximaria\u201d, from 8 to 22 October 2025, on the island of Iraklia<\/strong>\u00a0, and we invite you to participate in one of its two events:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/li>\n Both events will involve practical training on site, led by local masons, as well as theoretical classes.<\/strong> The practical training site is located at the beginning of the path leading to Merichas cliff, very close to the capital of Iraklia island, Panagia. The field works will involve restoration of free-standing and sustaining dry stone walls.<\/p>\n More details regarding the daily programme will be announced later.<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.21.4″ background_color=”#f7f7f7″ z_index_tablet=”500″ prev_background_color=”#ffffff” next_background_color=”#ffffff”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.48″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.21.4″ background_color=”#f7f7f7″ z_index_tablet=”500″]<\/p>\n ** Registration is open until 15 September 2025.<\/p>\n \u201cAllaximaria: Design and implementation of a dry stone workshop\u201d is funded by the\u00a0Hellenic Ministry of Culture<\/a>\u00a0 , the Secretariat-General of the Aegean and Aegean Island Policy<\/a> , with the support of Cyclades Preservation Fund \u2013 CPF<\/a>.
