*Accelerating Succession to Better Systems*


*Welcome to the Blue Mountains Permaculture Institute's final newsletter
for 2016:*


*TEACHING*

As I write, *Rowe Morrow is on her way back from teaching in a monastery in
Dehradun*, in the Himalayan foothills. She's been teaching students from
Tibet, Ladakh, Taiwan and Switzerland, and has also just graduated the *first
Bhutanese permaculturalists ever! *

*CHANGING THE STORY*

*Lis has been using permaculture principles to develop the* *NFP
organisation The Big Fix

It's received funding from Blue Mountains City Council and Arts NSW to
employ artists and writers to 'Change the Story' we hear in
mainstream media. It's part of a strategy to tell stories that reflect the*
collaborative solutions-focused culture* that we're working to create. We'd
love to hear stories from you that we can include in *The Big Fix*. You can
also sign up to receive a *Daily Solutions Digest*

After a year of extraordinary geopolitical upheaval, there's never been a
greater *need for permaculture to share its stories in mainstream
media *to help
inspire and accelerate succession to our next systems ... systems that are
restorative and humane, and that provide strategies for dealing with the
mass movement of species around the world.

We've even put some of these ideas onto a t-shirt, available via *The Big
Fix

*PERMACULTURE AND REFUGEES*

At the 2015 International Permaculture Convergence in London, *Permaculture
declared itself 'refugee friendly'.* Many of us are aching to assist
refugees who have lost so much, and Permaculture offers numerous avenues
for doing this.

See the short *video

in which Rowe recently provided an update of her thinking on *Permaculture
and Refugees*, and progress that's been made since London. Rowe's also
working with Permafund to deliver a course called *Permaculture in
Precarious Places
<http://bluemountainspermacultureinstitute.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=eb5d21a3cc9e792a8d8a9f282&id=cf877d9620&e=6abc81a005>*,
that identifies how to work in challenging environments, like refugee camps.


*COURSES*

The Institute is offering a *range of courses early in 2017* to continue to
provide the skill development needed to create our next systems:

1. *Permaculture Teacher Training Course*: 20-26 January
2. *Permaculture in Precarious Places*: Easter 13-19 April; *Permafund
Workshop*: 20-21 April
3. *Permaculture Design Course (PDC)*: Friday evenings and Saturdays 17
