IPC - Edge Events Application

Edge Events Application

In addition to the main event

IPC India 2017 is a joyful and fruitful event aimed at creating connections between people from varied walks of life and strengthening the permaculture movement in India and around the world. We want to expand this web connection beyond the IPC event. Therefore, we are collaborating with the permaculture network in India and internationally to identify avenues to inspire newbies and seasoned permies across the globe to join this wonderful movement. We want more and more people to know about the varied permaculture practices and their application.

Edge events will be events scheduled circa the IPC event focusing on the principles of permaculture. These events could be in the form of courses, workshops, lectures, permablitzs, visits and tours, lectures, discussions, etc. Let's connect with all the wonderful talent out there and gain knowledge from the best of permaculture designers, teachers and project leaders.

If you would like to showcase your event on IPC website, please go through the following guidelines.

Guidelines:

  • Events focusing on permaculture philosophy and sustainable living in general are highly encouraged to apply for selection.
  • We prefer to host information of events that are at least for one full-day.
  • We want to particularly focus on events scheduled in India, South Asia, and Southeast Asia as these regions are more easily accessible for the IPC event audience. However, we do not want to limit sharing information about events scheduled across the globe because connections happen everywhere!

  • Farm tours and visits scheduled post IPC Convergence (Nov 27 - Dec 02) also meet the selection criteria
