Les Cercle de Recherche, d'Éducation et de Formation has been put in place to  bring together new and existing Permaculture research, education, and training and creating a more cohesive, collaborative approach that supports learning, knowledge sharing, and practical action and we make this available to the wider movement.

Ce que nous faisons...

  • Maintain and promote research, education and training resources produced within the CoLab for the permaculture movement
  • Support the creation of research and educational materials through participation in the design and promotion of that material
  • Provide the CoLab and the permaculture movement with a quality peer review process and CoLab accreditation service
  • Provide a platform to support an accredited online PDC curriculum that is accessible as teaching aids.
  • Hold spaces for discussions around the modernization of permaculture certifications and related courses.
