Santa
Barbara Permaculture Network ( www.sbpermaculture.org) is a part
of the official Support Group for the International Permaculture
Conferences (IPC's), along with other communities and individuals
around the world. Traditionally IPC's take place every two years and
switch between continents. Past host sites have been in
Australia, USA, New Zealand, Scandinavia, Nepal, Croatia, Brazil, and
will be held on the African continent for the first time in 2009.
IPC9 is organized by a collaboration of African permaculturists,
coordinated by ReSCOPE Programme in Malawi.
Permaculture has a long history in Africa with
well know centers in Kenya, Zimbabwe, Malawi, South Africa and
others. For the first time the International Permaculture
Conference (IPC9) will be held on the African continent in 2009.
Plan Africa - Food & Empowerment, is the theme for the Conference.
A major goal of IPC9 is to establish the structure to bring
permaculture training and knowledge to all countries of Africa.
IPC9 will bring government and world press attention to grassroots
permaculture work by showcasing the sites and projects already
underway. African organizers are committed to bringing
participants from every economic sector and region to
attend.
