The greatest challenge of our time is coexistence…
How do we design our livelihoods and communities, so we live in harmony with all Life?
Can we read cultural patterns and utilize this knowledge to design intentionally the future we need and want?
What can we learn from natural systems and permaculture that can be applied to our own lives and communities to move from patterns of destruction and erosion to patterns of abundance and regeneration?
Join us to explore the above questions (and more) in a Master Class with experienced permaculturist and author Looby Mcnamara, interviewed by Gaia Education academic coordinator and experienced sustainability facilitator, Silvia Di Blasio.
We are offering this event in the spirit of the Gift Economy. A donation of 10-50GBP is recommended, so we can create similar events and make them available to as many people as possible, but we understand that this is not possible for everyone.
Please donate any amount you feel comfortable with and are able to.
