Sharing information is Regenerative ~ Be Part of the
Permaculture Solution
Empower yourself to advocate for change through whole systems design and teaching! In this dynamic and interactive course, you learn significant teaching techniques to communicate and apply
Permaculture principles and strategies to a wide variety of audiences and educational settings. Our goal is to encourage and inspire your unique strengths and abilities by demonstrating diverse teaching modalities including effective use of lecture, storytelling,
class discussions, interactive experiential activities, visual aids and hands-on skills.
As a group we facilitate a safe setting of active learning, building confidence by experiencing essential practice via preparing and co-teaching multiple presentations.
As with a
Permaculture Design Course, in this teacher training we offer practical solutions for sharing information, which is essential in these current times.We have had great success teaching, and are advocates for the Mollisonian Standard
Permaculture Design Course curriculum. We also believe each course taught needs to speak directly to
local conditions and the specific skills of the presenters’ team.
Jude has taught this course almost thirty times and it is never the same way twice… As proactive educators we are constantly adjusting the way a workshop or course is presented…creating innovative experiences that address varied learning styles while moving from theory to practice.
We appreciate the unique skills and experiences of those attending and cultivate networking for future connections and support. A core part of Jude’s work is inspiring and training the next generation of
Permaculture advocates.
