Advanced Permaculture Principles and Planning Tools
4 day residential course, with David Holmgren
Saturday 18th to Tuesday 21st September 2010
Hepburn Primary School, Main Road, HEPBURN VIC 3461
This course is targeted at permaculture practitioners, designers, activists and teachers, Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) holders and other suitably experienced people, who are looking to deepen their understanding of permaculture and improve their conceptual skills and tool kit for design and action.
Cost $530, includes meals and BYO camping onsite.
In this intensive course, David Holmgren, co-originator of the permaculture concept (with Bill Mollison), provides an insight into permaculture as a set of design principles for reshaping how we manage land, our lives and our livelihoods in a world of energy descent.
Using a combination of free flowing lectures, visual presentations, case studies of his own work, structured group discussions, observations and a site design exercise, David breathes life into the design principles which link the diversity of permaculture solutions. The core of this course is the presentation and workshopping in groups of the format of design principles from Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability. Additional presentations and group work focus on Reading Landscape, Landscape Mapping, Energy Descent Scenarios and Community Mapping. This 4 day format allows participants to gain experience in using the design principles in an extended small group site design exercise.
A PDC and prior reading of Permaculture: Principles and Pathways Beyond Sustainability are highly desirable for participants to successfully gain from the course, and contribute to it.
An internationally respected author and public speaker, David Holmgren is committed to presenting permaculture ideas through practical projects and personal example, providing a refreshing and unorthodox approach to the environmental issues of our time. To learn from him in Hepburn is an excellent rare opportunity.
