permaculture

[zukunftswerkstatt <zukunftswerkstatt@riseup.net>]

Dear everybody,

I am not sure how many of those on the list are interested in european
events...

As this is coming from the Global Ecovillage Network Europe, which is
quite closely linked to permaculture, I am hoping that I am not too far
off people's interest!


many greetings from Sieben Linden Ecovillage in Germany,

Sandra

*Invitation: Global Ecovillage Network Conference 2012 - Connecting
Communities for a Sustainable World, 10.-13. July 2012 - full funding
available!*

We warmly invite you to join our Global Ecovillage Network Conference,
taking place this year *10. - 13. July 2012* at the *Eco-Valley
Foundation in Hungary*. Again, more than 200 visitors, ranging from
changemakers, members of ecovillages, politicians, entrepreneurs,
educators and researchers in the field of community and sustainability
to people generally interested in the themes presented are expected to
gather for this event.

Ecovillages act as research and training centres for sustainable
development within wider society. Alongside the abundance of networking
opportunities and the flow of inspiration within and between
participants, the hosting Eco-Valley Foundation
<http://ecovalley.hu> will serve as a living example and field of
practice for the themes of this year’s conference:

·      *Villages in Transition to Resilience* 

·      *Gaming*

·      *Sustainable Economy* 

·      *Alternative Technology *

·      *NextGEN  - Involving youth/young adults*

·      *Global Scope of GEN *

Each day of the conference will start with talks and project
presentations, followed by workshops in smaller groups in the afternoon.
The conference will provide a multitude of opportunities to get to know
the other participants and for informal exchange. It will be facilitated
by Capra Carruba, Robin Alfred and Kosha Joubert.

Staff in adult education can apply for a Grundtvig grant covering all costs.
You can find the full invitation and registration at http://bit.ly/gen2012
