A Permavillage is defined by a simple equation :

Permavillage = Village + Permaculture

As permaculture was defined by Bill Mollison as permanent agriculture, a Permavillage is permanent as well. Of course nowadays we would rather say 'sustainable'.

How can a permavillage be sustainable?

Given the current state of our planet, I'm pretty convinced we all know what we've been doing wrongly so far, and what should not be done if we want our permavillage to be sustainable.

Five conditions

I have come up with five conditions that I believe should be fulfilled if we want our permavillage to be sustainable, and if you think of any other please let me know.
