ABOUT

 WEBSITE : www.learningclan.net

YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR TALENT EXCHANGE NUMBER TO BUY A TICKET.

PLEASE READ AND AGREE TO THESE POINTS BEFORE PURCHASE

* Learning Clan is a community village not a laid on event - everyone participates to make it happen.

*.All trading is done in Talents at this Festival. Gifting or bartering is fine too but no money whatsoever please.

* Conscious camping - leave no trace, be considerate to everyone around you, help with village chores

* Attendance is entirely at your own risk. 

* You must be fully self sufficient and take full responsibility for yourselves, your children, and your belongings.

* Gate will be open only from 9am-5pm - no after hours entry. 

* Each day, between 10-11am, everyone offers some community service for the flow and enhancement of the village

* No chemicals of any kind. Mindful alcohol, no under age drinking/smoking. Right of admission reserved.

* Please ensure your teenagers are fully aware of the ethos of the village and agree to participate.

*You must be a member of the Talent Exchange:

• This is a no-money event - you can gift, barter or swop or use the Talent Exchange. 
• Sign up if you are not already a member. 
• It's quick and easy and free and is a handy tool for being able to trade without money before, during and after the festival.
• Go to www.ctte.org.za (if you live in Cape Town) or www.ces.org.za (Regional /International) 
• You will be asked what your offering is. This does NOT have to be the same as the offering you bring to the event.
• You will receive a TE number within 24 hours, which you must enter when you buy your ticket above.
• There are many exchanges all over the world, so join the one closest to where you live. All exchanges can trade freely with each other.
• In the Talent Balance question - just enter 0, but all existing members must put their current balance

If you are already a member of the Exchange

- please enter your current Talent number and Talent balance - this is so we know that YOU know, if you have a positive or negative balance. 

The idea is to keep your balance around zero. If you have a negative balance it means you have taken morethan given to your community, so you need to think of something to do or sell on the Exchange in the next few months or have a definite plan to earn talents at the Festival. See the website for ideas.  

If this sounds complicated, don't worry, it's all part of the learning, you'll get the hang of it and be glad of this amazing system to trade with people without needing money, or banks or vat throughout the year.
