Robyn Francis presents an inspiring case study of her village of  
Nimbin in Northern NSW Australia as an example of Permaculture  
working at a community level.  Her local bioregion boasts over 40  
intentional communities and the village has been at the cutting edge  
of social experimentation and environmental innovation for over 30  
years. Learn how she has worked with her community as a Permaculture  
consultant for eco-developments and local government, influencing  
state planning laws, facilitating participatory design, and  
establishing a Permaculture training centre and bioregional campus.
