Aging of a population, a very low birth-rate, urban exodus: Aguaviva, an isolated Spanish village in the Aragon region, had slow death for only destiny: house and farming are being abandoned and the school has only 20 students left. But the mayor decided to send newspaper advertisement abroad, refusing fatality: he would warrant work and a home for any family with two children between six and 12 wishing to settle down for at least five years in his 'Spanish village seeks families willing to immigrate.' These words brought a lot of enthusiastic answers. Today, 20 new families, almost twice the population of about 300 people, came from Argentina, Romania, Uruguay and Ecuador. The village became full and started living again, the school is busy, and the experience and cohabitation brings new hope to everyone. Far remote from the ambiant deception and individualism, many other Spanish villages are following the Aguaviva mayor's footsteps.
