Structure

EuPN Structure

EuPN operates with a flat hierarchy and as few formal roles as possible honoring the Teal principles.

Different groups have emerged where necessary, either through practical requirements or by design.

Legal and Operational Structure

The EuPN website is legally operated by Vihreä Pourusmäki ry (Finland). Chase & Snow - specalists in Ethical IT, provide the technical infrastructure and development services under agreement with Vihreä Pourusmäki.

This ensures legal clarity, operational stability, and long-term continuity of our digital platform.

Community Stewardship

The Permaculture Network operates as a community-stewarded platform.

This means that the legal and operational responsibility is held by Vihreä Pourusmäki ry, while the content, activity, and value of the platform are created by its members.

Operational responsibility and community participation are intentionally combined to balance stability with openness.

Core Council

The platform is supported by a small advisory group called the “Core Council.”

The Core Council meets approximately one hour per month to reflect on direction, discuss strategic questions, and provide feedback on major decisions. It does not manage operations and does not hold legal responsibility.
