small and slow solutions book cover
The final project publication (100 pages/ full colour/ 200 images), is designed as a resource to aid the practical understanding and application of permaculture design principles.  The book draws on 5 years of relevant local case studies here in Wales  as well as with our Ugandan partners at Busoga high school, Kamuli.

 

One of the main outputs of our project will be the creation of a cross-curricular programme that draws on the principles of Permaculture to promote ecoliteracy, climate awareness and to foster a new attitude toward our responsibilities as global citizens.

To this end we are writing 12 core units covering each of the 12 key principles. It will essentially be a Permaculture textbook catered for use in Secondary Education contexts.

This is an ongoing project, which is being reflexively written as we work with students at Llanfyllin High School, incorporating their ideas and insights into the programme as we write it.

When finished, the programme will be central to the replication of this project in other schools in Wales, and further afield.

See below for examples of content from the programme. We would welcome any feedback or comments on what we have so far produced.
