We are starting a “weekly dose” series of posts, in which each week we showcase an item from the digital archives.
This week’s document is a fresh entry into the digital archives. In collaboration with the Auroville Town Development Council (ATDC aka L’avenir d’Auroville), the Archives is currently scanning all the Aurovilian building applications that have been received and processed by the ATDC over the years. We present here the very first application on record, from way back in January 1989! It is for a “training center” at Isaiambalam. This is the first application to get approved by the ATDC (then known at least partially as the Planning Group) after they set up the process for building applications in Auroville.
