What is needed to organize a course with The New School Permaculture?

For the organization of the Permaculture Design course there are these needs:

We are very happy with the possibility to realize an event at your place. 

There are some needs and standards for our activities that we consider very important in order to make the best experience possible.
 Please read below and let us know your ideas and suggestions in the comments. Thank you!


Teachers needs

To be able to provide a life changing experience teachers need a private room ideally a bit separate from the students during the event and during the extra time needed to eventually stay at the place.


It is very important to have internet access to develop content for the course and for organizational purposes.

We are used to teach for big groups so we dont have a maximum number of participants per course, usually the maximum limit is related with the capacity of the hosting site.

Hostig

PRIMARY NEEDS
-Class room with confortable conditions for the number of students

SECONDARY NEEDS

ou ensinamos como as organizacoes devem ser geridas e como devem ser 
postas a funcionar da forma mais harmónica....esse é o nosso trabalho e missão.

Basicamente o conhecimento e estruturas que partilhamos são postas a 
a funcionar imediatamente o que leva os projetos e os espacos a outro nivel de funcionamento.

Apenas trabalhamos com projetos que reconheçam estas caracteristicas do trabalho unico que realizamos.

As desert is rapidly claiming vast areas of our planet, millions are on the verge of starvation.

Artificial inteligence will also arive in agriculture fields
to feed human needs


What will be the result of that?


I am sure human inteligence can protect us of a robot take over

My maestra Olivia was killed in the Amazon...how many more shamans will have to die?

One of the last keepers of the original shipibo traditions has been killed.
It is very sad for me to say specially because its someone i met 
and someone that blessed me in my work.
We will never forget what you have done for us and the protection you will keep giving werever you are.

A traditional healer and elder Olivia Arévalo Lomas of the Shipibo Konibo Indigenous people of Peru was assassinated yesterday with five shots to the heart.
Olivia was 84 years old
In addition to the attack on Lomas, the following  written death threat against another Shipibo female healer reads: "Señora y Sr Magdalena Florez Agustín, Bernardo Murayari Ochavano You have 48 hours to flee. 
One bullet for each of you and if you don't do as told there will be the consequence that more bullets will rain down on you"

ASESINAN A LIDERESA INDÍGENA DEL PUEBLO SHIPIBO KONIBO
La reconocida cultora de los conocimientos tradicionales del pueblo shipibo konibo, Olivia Arévalo Lomas, fue asesinada de cinco balazos al mediodía de ayer en su comunidad Victoria Gracia, Pucallpa 
(en las riberas del río Ucayali a pocas horas de la frontera brasileña).
Un sicario motorizado le disparó a Olivia a pocos metros de su casa de habitación.
Arévalo se une a una larga lista de indígenas del Perú, como Edwin Chota Valera, Leoncio Quintisima Meléndez, Francisco Pinedo Ramírez, Jorge Ríos Pérez y otros, que se sospecha fueron ultimados por madereros ilegales y narcotraficantes que los tenían amenazados.

Un pistolero sin identificar disparó cinco tiros sobre ella. Posiblemente no sea casualidad que el territorio de su pueblo se encuentre justamente en medio de una región azotada por la fiebre del aceite de palma en Perú. 
Recientemente el Congreso peruano declaró de interés nacional construir más carreteras en la región.



Esta sabia indígena fue también cultora de los conocimientos tradicionales de esta etnia. Además era activa defensora de los derechos culturales y ambientales de su pueblo.
Fue conocida por cultivar medicina tradicional y por los cantos sagrados de su pueblo (Íkaros), declarados Patrimonio Cultural en junio del 2016 por el Ministerio de Cultura. Los cantos sagrados son un elemento transversal de la cultura etnia shipibo-konibo y son expresión de su relación íntima y armoniosa con la naturaleza.





A Samaúma é conhecida como "árvore da vida" ou "escada do céu", apresenta propriedades medicinais. Essa árvore consegue retirar a água das profundezas do solo amazônico e trazer não apenas para abastecer a si mesma, mas também para repartir com outras espécies. 
Gracias maestra Olivia
