GREETINGS FROM  ORGANIZERS


IPC9 MALAWI , AFRICA  2009


DESIGNING SOLUTIONS FOR A  SUSTAINABLE FUTURE - PLAN AFRICA: FOOD AND 
EMPOWERMENT

On behalf of the organisers of the  the 9th International Permaculture 
Conference and Convergence (IPC9) that is  happpening in Africa I extend a warm 
welcome to you from the warm heart of  Africa. We invite you to this blog so 
that you can be part of the excitement  that we are having in hosting this 
momentous event that comes on the eve of the  Copenhagen summit on climatic 
change.  The IPC is a genuine grassroots  movement that happens entirely due 
to the energy and enthusiasm of the ordinary  member.


The Programme that is lined up for  the convergence is packed with 
experiences from across the world that will be  shared during the first two days. On 
the third day we have created open spaces  where participants will direct 
their energies towards an issue of their choice.  On the fourth day of the 
convergence we gather to share the strategies from the  various open spaces 
and thematic discussions. During the conference we will have  key note 
presentations before a tree planting exercise with the local people.  After that 
the participants walk through displays and markets and network.   A group of 
over 50 young learners from various schools will be part of the  conference 
gathering. The conference will be followed by a three week tour of  
Permaculture projects in three Southern African countries.

We look forward to sharing much  of the excitement from these events on 
this blog. Welcome! Bemvindo! Bienvenue!  Karibu! Mwalandiridwa! Sethule! 
Tigashire!Titambire!   
Mugove  Walter Nyika, IPC9 Coordinator, Blantyre, Malawi. October  2009
