Permaculture is a holistic design system for creating and sustaining 
regenerative human settlement patterns for healthy living. This 
permaculture course offers a new way to teach solution-based, eco-social 
design concepts by applying the principles of permaculture to the 
teaching of permaculture. Teachers and practitioners in any field can 
apply these skills and practices. This course will cover every aspect of 
being an effective educator and promoter of mutually beneficial 
relationships for a more sustainable and just future. By taking the 
approach of whole person learning and using teaching combinations from 
educators from all over the world, this course provides invaluable 
information about facilitating and how to frame concepts and ideas to 
people from all walks of life and cultural contexts. This course also 
teaches the basics of how to administer the core permaculture design 
course, as well as planning and preparing for specialized 
permaculture-focused workshops and practica.

Highlights include:
