Earth Activist Training

Radical Sustainability and Regenerative Activism

So much more than a permaculture design certification
course, Earth Activist Training (EAT) weaves the
principles of permaculture, earth-based spirituality,
and regenerative activism into a captivating
curriculum that blends classroom lecture and
experiential exercises with practical, hands-on
learning opportunities.



May 3-17, 2008

a SOCIAL PERMACULTURE Intensive

Instructors: Starhawk, Charles Williams, Margo Adair,
Bill Aal,
Mary Lou Singleton, and special guest instructors

Manzanita Village, Warner Springs, Southern
California, USA


In this course with a special focus on social
permaculture, participants will learn ways to
collaborate and build just and enduring alliances
across social divides, as well as skills to build
personal, interpersonal and community resilience to
sustain themselves through hard times.



This two-week residential intensive is a permaculture
design certificate course and also offers a
broad-brush overview of the regenerative design
principles of permaculture. From inoculating mushrooms
and digging swales to building with natural materials
and sheet mulching the land, students have ample
opportunity to experience these principles firsthand.



Throughout the course, students work in small groups
to incorporate what they are learning into real-world
permaculture design projects. The course culminates in
the presentation of each group’s design project —
which earns each student a Permaculture Design
Certificate (required for any advanced course of
study).



Curriculum includes: Water harvesting, graywater,
bioremediation, natural building, cob, plant guilds,
alternative energy, sustainable forestry, plant
propagation, soil fertility, compost and mulch,
consensus, facilitation, alliance building,
alternative economics, direct action, strategy, issues
of power, privilege and creative collaboration,
Applied Meditation combining work with intention,
intuition and mindfulness, energy shifting and ritual
creation.
