'Permaculture derives a future vision from the synergetic combination of all our skills, potentials and resources'. We invite European activists from Permaculture and all of Earth Care - People Care - Fair Share to co-create one common space, to link up & come together, to share skills & spread knowledge, to nurture ourselves and claim our stake before the few public performers of the Big Play.
Our vision goes beyond the traditional format of the EuPC - and yet embraces it at the same time. We are seeing a European landscape of activists and their networks - and want to link us all up, because we ARE ONE web of change and the time is now!
We therefore use our chance to reach out and call for delegations and representatives from all European countries and to come and join the EuPC 2012, to share their message and be of presence. We can accomodate a maximum of 300 people on a low-tech infrastructure and can already see the space filling up fast... What a resonance!
If you receive this invitation, we think it would be great to have you there. Would you like to be part of it?! Are you ready to co-create the space with us by lining up your country group/network and organizing your coming and contribution? Get in contact with us and get creative!
Use your chance to attend both the Pre-EuPC-Permaculture-Design-Course AND the EuPC on European Funding!
http://ec.europa.eu/education/trainingdatabase (search 'Permakultur Institut') Welcome to consider the opportunity of building up the AfterCon-week, a landscape of YOUR courses, events & workshops in the region or join the AfterCon-Site Tour, a merry journey to Permaculture places & communities, living architecture and remarkable people in Germany.
The EuPC will be held for 5 days & nights, with you arriving on Tue 31st July.
It will be a living landscape of workshops and speeches, of interaction and introspection, of Earth Spirit, Mind Matter and Free Flow. Already gladly receiving your themes and offers, we're extremely happy to merge them into a fine framework of workshops, presentations, plays and market stalls with enough Open Space to entertain the unknown.
Saturday 4th is Public Paradise & Party and Sunday 5th August Organize & Occupy:
Preparing together for a major public event in the City of Kassel, where at the same time dOCUMENTA 13 (a cultural event of world standing) is happening - our closing Circle will be a Circle of Power, transmitting our vision in a procession down town, where we link up with the Kassel-network of change to occupy public space with powerful peace.
