Permaculture Diploma on Earth Action Mentor!

EarthActionMentor.org is partnering with
Gaia University and permaculture professionals from around the world to develop a Diploma of Applied Permaculture Design. This diploma program will engage students in active practice of the fundamentals of permaculture design through real situations. This methodology, called "action learning," allows students to learn professional design skills and documentation techniques by carrying out their choice of project work while maintaining regular contact with advisors and peers. Students may opt to study for the permaculture diploma through bioregional training centers and/or participate in distance learning through Earth Action Mentor. Combined strategies are encouraged.

To learn more, ask questions, and give feedback on the Diploma of Applied Permaculture Design, visit the website.


Earth Action Mentor will guide diploma students through passion-based learning, allowing them to customize the curriculum to suit their individual goals and visions. By signing up for the permaculture diploma through Earth Action Mentor, you will receive personalized mentoring to assist you in your learning journey. Earth Action Mentor will publish selected documentation from student-designed electronic portfolios on our website, EarthActionMentor.org, providing students a venue to receive valuable peer review and networking opportunities.
