As climate is the foundation for our ecological designs, culture must be the foundation for our people designs.
In this presentation, Neal will show us a framework he uses for understanding and working within foreign cultures, and leading cultural change. This will eliminate the one-size fits all approach that many people take to "People Care" in Permaculture and give you a framework for adapting social systems to local preferences and
conditions.
Within any system, the social component is always the hardest.
Neal had
a steep learning curve in his mission to green the Saudi Desert with a tribe of local Bedouins. He had to adapt to different cultural values, systems, and expectations in order to make the project a success.
If you're
interested in seeing what it takes to create Regenerative People Systems, even in a different culture, then join us for this Thursday's webinar! If we can learn to work across cultures, then we can repair our farms and ecosystems.
