The International Permaculture CoLab is starting a community-driven effort to elevate permaculture research and spark more public discourse around permaculture as a tool for addressing today’s global challenges—climate change, food security, biodiversity loss, and social justice.

Our aim is simple:

To spotlight existing research, build dialogue between researchers and practitioners, and make permaculture research more visible and accessible.

Who we’re looking for:

Calling all permaculture educators and practitioners! The European Permaculture Network (EuPN) is gathering insights on the essential requirements for the Permaculture Design Course (PDC). If you're involved in teaching or coordinating a PDC, we need your input.

Take a few minutes to fill out our questionnaire at PDC Requirements Survey and help us understand the variations in PDC offerings across different regions.

The European Permaculture Network (EuPN) has completed a survey of institutions that issue Diplomas in Applied Permaculture Design. The survey provides insights into the varying practices across Europe and highlights the similarities and unique approaches of diploma-issuing bodies. The results reflect the adaptability of permaculture education, offering students multiple pathways toward certification.
