Have you ever been to an International Permaculture Convergence (IPC)?

They are epic!

An event that draws the best and brightest permaculturists from around the 
world to help put together visionary solutions for a better world. For more 
than forty years Permaculture has been leading the way with innovative, 
planet and climate friendly design strategies that are just now being fully 
recognized by the rest of the world as the answer to some of our most 
pressing global problems.

Held every two years in different parts of the globe, the next IPC takes 
place in Hyderabad India, November 2017, hosted by Aranya Agricultural 
Alternatives, where this year Permaculture will be celebrating its 30th 
anniversary!

The theme for IPC India is Towards Healthy Societies, with other subthemes, 
including Women as Agents of Change. Founded by permaculture pioneers 
Narsanna & Padma Koppula, Aranya Agriculture Alternatives has been 
demonstrating and working on these themes for many years.

For the Permaculture community, the International Permaculture Convergences 
are hugely important, with projects and actual working design solutions 
developed and shared for the smallest villages to the largest cities.

A diversity of ideas and approaches, by a diversity of participants, with 
knowledge shared across continents & countries, is the goal of every IPC. In 
order to insure diversity, donations are need for scholarships to fund some 
of the most talented & innovative delegates to attend.

Many delegates are coming from cash poor but experience and skill rich 
regions to share their projects and knowledge.

The IPC India conveners will support forty Indian farmers to attend free, 
while this Crowdrise campaign, with your help, will support International 
delegates from outside India also attend.

Forty-two delegates have applied so far.
The IPC India conveners will support 400 Indian farmers to attend free, while

Please support generously with your dollars, the life & civilization they 
save may be your own!
