Hands-on learning at an 18-year permaculture site in Sintra. Food forests, natural building, water systems, regenerative agriculture. International facilitators.
Terra Alta is one of the most established Permaculture projects in Europe. With 18 years as a permaculture site-in-development, and a centre for research and education with over 50 Permaculture Design Certificate Courses (PDCs) taught, we offer Permaculture education at the highest level, led by artist and certified Permaculture teacher, Pedro Valdjiu.
Course overview
This Permaculture Design Course is an internationally recognised intensive program that equips students with:
- a comprehensive understanding of the concepts of Permaculture
- tools and know-how to design your own regenerative projects
- the basics for land design, and whole-systems thinking tools to better navigate society as well as your own inner landscape
- Immersive 10-day programme, with one day off on the 5th day (we will served breakfast only – no lunch, no dinner).
The programme will span over the full day, alternating interactive theory classes with hands-on session. Social and communal activities during some of the evenings, the day off and departure day.
It is about 50% practical, with plenty of hands-on activities. We create a participatory learning environment and use interactive, embodied learning methods.
