Michal Vital, Israeli Architect and Eco-builder, speaking about her involvement with the non-profit BUSTAN, in the Negev Desert of Israel.
The word "bustan" refers to a fruit-yielding orchard in both Hebrew and Arabic and symbolizes the work of Bustan (www.bustan.org ). It is a partnership of Jewish and Arab eco-builders, architects, academics, and farmers promoting social and environmental justice in Israel/Palestine with a focus on the Bedouin villages of the Negev Desert. BUSTAN utilizes the principles of permaculture and non-violent direct action across ethnic divides.
Founded in 1999, Bustan's first project was a two day festival in the "unrecognized" village of Dreijatt, bringing together hundreds of Bedouin and Jewish Israelis, celebrating cultural diversity, mutual education on history and environmental issues, and collecting signatures for a petition to recognize the village with legal status. Two months later the village was formerly recognized. In 2003 Bustan organized five hundred Jewish and Bedouin volunteers to build an entirely sustainable medical clinic in the village of Wadi el Na'am. This strawbale solar powered structure is featured in the book, "Build Like You Give A Damn", and was nominated for the Aga Khan Award, one of the most prestigious architecture prizes in the world. At another village a school dump was transformed into a water conserving orchard, while teaching children about local ecology In 2007 Bustan moved to Beersheva and opened the Green Center and began teaching ongoing permaculture workshops and trainings. Bustan views sustainability in both political and environmental terms and works for common Jewish and Bedouin interests.

The Negev is a rocky desert region with dusty mountain ranges, dry riverbeds (wadis) and unique deep craters imprinted on the landscape. It is the largest, yet most peripheral region of the country, located in southern Israel, and makes up 60% of Israel's land, but only 8% of Israel's population live there. A fragile environment, it hosts Israel's largest toxic waste dump Romat Hovav, a nuclear power plant, petro-chemical factories, a waste incinerator and other environmental hazards. Local populations already marginalized are particularly vulnerable to health hazards caused by these. Romat Hovav is located near Beersheva, the main city of Negev, and since its opening has had a history of leakages, overflows, and failures.

Michal Vital is a nationally renowned planner and green building consultant and volunteer with BUSTAN since its inception. Michal was one of the team leaders that built BUSTAN's strawbale medical clinic, and has planned numerous ecologically friendly buildings throughout the country. She was the lead teacher of BUSTAN'S first permaculture course. She will be speaking in Santa Monica, Santa Barbara and San Francisco area as part of her Bustan Speaking Tour titled "Permaculture for Justice".


Permaculture (PERMAnent agriCULTURE) is a design system based on ecological principles for creating sustainable human environments.

Greetings all,

I'm trying to pull together the 'best practices' for Pc course financial
planning that I can find. More specifically, I'm after any sort of
spreadsheet or worksheet that will efficiently calculate expenses and
income, do a break-even analysis, etc....preferably one that is already
formatted with expense and income items commonly associated with Pc
courses/workshops.

Anyone have any handy excel workbooks that they want to offer up into
commons?

If anyone has anything close (even if not already in excel...just a physical
worksheet?), I'd be happy to clean it up make and it useful for the whole
community.


Best to you all!

Leonard
