Inteligência Local (iLocal) is an Association for the Regeneration, Development, and Governance of Local Economies. iLocal aims to create alternative ways of living in modern societies. They connect people seeking a more sustainable life to build collaborative communities and implement projects that contribute to local sustainable development and the regeneration of desertified territories.
Focusing on the towns of Vilares da Vilariça and Colmeais, part of the Alfândega da Fé Municipality, in the Portuguese district of Bragança district, iLocal is developing Portugal's 1st Smart Village. This project includes developing a Laboratory for Social Experimentation and an Ecosystem for innovation and interdisciplinary research, to attract 100 new inhabitants to Vilares da Vilariça by 2030 and serve as a model for revitalizing other places.
The funds raised in this campaign will co-finance the production of Circ'Bô Festival's first edition, which will take place between August 23 and 25, 2024, in Vilares da Vilariça.
The Circ'Bô Festival is part of iLocal's macro-program. A cultural and environmental event presented as a meeting point between the local community and contemporary circus artists, through artistic residencies for young talents and creative programming in the landscapes of Trás-os-Montes. The funding will be used to support the Festival's production costs and the programming, which will then be offset by the box office.
The event will bring contemporary circus performances to the interior of Portugal, enabling local cultural enrichment. Circ'Bô will also create space to trade cultural goods and services, providing employment opportunities and promoting local production. The festival encourages sustainable practices and environmental awareness, integrating culture with preserving the ecosystem of the bio-region "Lagos do Sabor". Circ'Bô is co-produced by iLocal and INAC.

Focusing on the well-being of the local community, the event has a strategy for the participation of local populations and the development of the region. The initiatives that make up the strategy are the financing of structures for the festival that will remain in use by the people, such as solar panels, the community biodigester, the dry toilets, and the spaces that will host the food court and handicrafts - adding up to an approximate value of €20,000 in investment in structures.
In addition, the food court will be made up of 80% regional traders, with products strictly of local origin, promoting the region's economy. Residents of Vilares de Vilariça and the surrounding villages will also be able to offer their products and take part in the "Bed and Breakfast" initiative, in which they rent out rooms or entire houses to host visitors.
The five communities impacted are Vilares de Vilariça, the municipality of Alfândega da Fé, Vila Flor, Macedo de Cavaleiros, and Mirandela, with approximately 10.000 people.x
