'''Self-sufficiency''' refers to the state of not requiring any outside aid, support, or (in hardline cases) interaction, for survival; it is therefore a type of extreme personal or collective (group-based) [[Wiktionary:autonomy|autonomy]].

The term self-sufficiency is usually applied to varieties of [[sustainable living]] in which nothing is consumed outside of what is produced by the self-sufficient individuals. Examples of attempts at self-sufficiency in [[North America]] include [[voluntary simplicity]], [[Luddite|Luddism]], [[homesteading]], [[survivalism]], and the [[back-to-the-land movement]].

Practices that enable or aid self-sufficiency include [[autonomous building]], [[permaculture]], [[sustainable agriculture]], and [[renewable energy]].

The existence of an effectively closed system makes self-sufficiency a necessity for any form of [[space colonization]], and to an extent [[ocean colonization]].

The term is also applied to limited forms of self-sufficiency, for example growing one's own food or becoming economically independent of state [[subsidy|subsidies]] or (in the case of larger political entities) [[foreign aid]].
