Permaculture needs more educators and this is why Permaculture Denmark has decided to send some of us PDC holders to the Permaculture Teacher's Training Course in Sweden this November. The course is based on Rosemary Morrow's experience and on the Permaculture Educators Course. This course is facilitated by Alfred Decker and Cathrine Dolleris and Helena von Bothmer is hosting on her amazing permaculture nursery, Kosters Trädgård in Sweden. Courses like this takes place all over Europe with different teachers involved.

I would like to mention a few events from the Czech permaculture scene. There are some new publications, courses, and PDCs, but I will only mention events that have some international overlap.

Become our tropical permaculture volunteer expert for one year with everything paid in an eco village in Ghana.

Your tasks will be:

• To make a tropical permaculture design
• To educate local and international students in tropical permaculture design & forest
• To involve future investors in the development of "a tropical permaculture forest & eco-village” in Ghana.

In this two day course for parents, teachers and other educators to learn how to engage children in permaculture, participants will learn how the permaculture ethics and principles can be applied to education; discover some great benefits of outdoor learning; learn how to create child-led sessions which engage the whole child: eyes, heart, hands and head; and much more!

Due to some changes in our team, Volkmar and Leo left, we had to streamline our process of addingt events to our event calendar a little.

In the past our calendar was managed by Leo and Cathrine. With Leo gone we need to make sure that Cathrine doesn't have to work more.
