CURRICULUM:
Over the years we have crafted an in-depth, dynamic curriculum that we
are very proud of. We cover all elements of PERMACULTURE, from its
guiding ethics and principles to hands-on strategies of garden bed
creation and soil loss prevention; from water management and use to
food forests; from invisible structures and fair share to the
implementation of successful PERMACULTURE-based enterprises; from
integrated animal husbandry to natural building AND SO MUCH MORE!
The curriculum is divided into three areas: presentations,
discussions, and class activities; hands-on practical site work and
DESIGN; and field trips and excursions to regional PERMACULTURE SITES.
Topics are covered in a variety of ways to support all learning
styles.
Studying Permaculture in Guatemala offers amazing opportunities to
learn from indigenous cultures, rich natural patterns, and enormous
diversity. Permaculture in Central America is representative of the
edge effect or Edge Valuing Principle of Design. As one of the
world’s centres of biodiversity, Central America attracts people
from all over the world interested in learning through nature.
Permaculture practices and designs can be seen in action via the
surviving indigenous traditions that are common here. Participants
will discover great opportunities to learn from diverse groups of
people in incredibly biodiverse natural settings.
