Recovery of Foodforestsystems at foot of Kilimanjaro with ideas of permaculture
In 2009 first trip together with Franz Hörmanseder, former aid worker in Tanzania, to the Homegardens of the chagga tibe at food of Kilimanjaro, to Kibosho District. In the little village Umbwe Onana we visited farmer Aloyce Massawe. We gave him some informations of permaculture and tought him to get familiar wirth the A-Frame. So we could built a swale and a Mandala Garden together with him and friends from neighbourhood.
At the end we desided togehter to run a PDC in October 2010. So we nearly spent the whole year with organising this PDC, we introduced smallscalefarmer from all around Tanzania. In October back in Umbwe Onana we runned the PDC at Aloyces Farm with 28 Participants from Tanzania, Kenia and Austria.
In December of 2011 we will be also back there to make our Participants from 2010 going. We will run some practical Workshop, for example how to built a World stove for biochar production. We also likte to train them to become permaculture teacher! ... it is our main focus!
You can support us with money or with your participation at Umbwe Onana in November / December 2011!
Note: The various badges displayed in people profiles are largely honesty-based self-proclamations by the individuals themselves. There are reporting functions users can use if they know of blatant misrepresentation (for both people and projects). Legitimacy, competency and reputation for all people and projects can be evidenced and/or developed through their providing regular updates on permaculture work they’re involved in, before/after photographs, etc. A spirit of objective nurturing of both people and projects through knowledge/encouragement/inspiration/resource sharing is the aim of the Worldwide Permaculture Network.

PRI TeacherWith the exception of the ‘Member’ who has never taken a PDC, all of the above can apply to become a PRI PDC Teacher. PRI PDC Teachers are those who the PRI recognise, through a vetting board, as determined and competent to teach the full 72-hour course as developed by Permaculture founder Bill Mollison – covering all the topics of The Designers’ Manual as well as possible (i.e. not cherry picking only aspects the teacher feels most interested or competent in). Such teachers also commit to focussing on the design science, and not including subjective spiritual/metaphysical elements. The reason these items are not included in the PDC curriculum is because they are “belief” based. Permaculture Design education concerns itself with teaching good design based on strategies and techniques which are scientifically provable. PRI PDC Teachers may be given teaching and/or consultancy offerings as they become available as the network grows. |
