We realize that it is not a one way for all, therefore we are creating this space for the old and the new to come together and share, mentor, guide by learning from our stories made here in the Colab. We would like as many stories be voiced on this space.<\/p>\n This Quarter, the Reevaluation & Counseling (RC) Cohort project has made significant progress by adopting and expanding the one-on-one teaching method introduced in the Q2 2024 report. This approach provides greater flexibility for both learners and teachers while promoting consistent mutual practice sessions. Additionally, it allows us to connect new learners within the Colab environment to established RC communities, both geographically and through the pre-Colab Gaia U network.<\/p>\n Currently, three to four learners are actively participating, ensuring at least three reciprocal teaching and session exchanges weekly. These sessions total six teacher-led events per week, with one learner also engaging with advanced RC practitioners and communities in Sacramento and the Foothills, further enhancing their experience. Peer learning and session-swapping between participants is becoming a regular practice, which strengthens the cohort\u2019s skill development.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n December Update:<\/p>\n Three sessions were delivered this year successfully and the recordings were published within Colab. The sessions are Creating & Maintaining a Sociocratic Ecosystem, Active & Responsible Participation in Open Governance and A Journey in CoLab Oration, the recording of which is published on Colab\u2019s youtube channel at https:\/\/youtu.be\/vQ3sBcEAAng?si=fvPjlK8ECdUS_X0X<\/a><\/p>\n If you feel inspired to further this conversation relevant to your environment and teams, please contact us at learn@perma.earth<\/a><\/p>\n An article outlining OMBRA training, what it entails and how to participate was published. More information about this can be found here: https:\/\/gaiauniversity.org\/rc-pathway\/<\/a><\/p>\n There was an intention for CoLab Members attending 1-on-1 mentorship\u00a0 with Andrew to give them the experiential and theoretical skills, around 4 people took up this opportunity. Towards the end of the year there was a change of objective to produce an article about what Re-Evaluation Counseling is and how it is being offered.<\/p>\n The team is intending recenter its objectives around maximising impact through the CoLab training program for Y3.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin_tablet=”||-80px||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#ffffff” custom_padding=”30px|30px|30px|30px|true|true” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|20px||20px|true|true” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ box_shadow_color=”rgba(12,113,195,0.13)” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_4_font=”PT Sans|700||on|||||” header_4_text_color=”#ffc107″ header_4_font_size=”11px” header_4_letter_spacing=”1px” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”center_right” custom_padding=”8px||||false|false” border_color_all=”#f9ce6e” border_width_top=”1px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”PT Sans||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||||||” header_3_font=”Playfair Display|700|||||||” header_3_font_size=”28px” header_3_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font_size_tablet=”24px” header_3_font_size_phone=”18px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 1.

We also created an artifact capturing both the theory and practice of community: how to be a good community member, and what it takes to build and sustain community online.<\/p>\n The design for Network Weaving Processes and Practices has been completed, and the session will run on the 15th of October using a fishbowl format. Invitations have been sent to a number of experienced network weavers to share their expertise. Registration is open here: https:\/\/learn.perma.earth\/product\/network-weaving-practices-and-processes-for-international-permaculture-colab-members\/<\/a><\/p>\n We are also finalising the design of a 3-part series planned for the end of the year: \u201cIntroduction to Permaculture\u201d. This course will provide a practical orientation to permaculture design, explore its history, and offer opportunities for mentorship and feedback on participants\u2019 design activities. Registration is available here: https:\/\/learn.perma.earth\/product\/introduction-to-permaculture-course\/<\/a><\/p>\n Finally, we are collaborating with the iCAAFS team to create badges for the Introduction to Permaculture course. Permaculture teachers in the CoLab have been invited to peer review this course as part of a wider effort to develop peer-reviewed courses within the CoLab.<\/p>\n To Register for the future events please use:<\/p>\n https:\/\/learn.perma.earth\/minimum-viable-academy\/<\/a><\/p>\n Final Update<\/strong><\/p>\n The CoLab Training Programme delivered a full cycle of learning offerings in 2025 designed to strengthen skills, confidence, and shared capacity across the global permaculture community. The programme began with an ethical marketing workshop that introduced a clear framework for designing communication in ways that are values aligned and accessible. Participants worked with nature-based metaphors to understand how strong marketing can be rooted in ecological thinking, with activities that helped them assess their content and outreach through lenses such as flowers, pollination, mycelial networks. The session was well received, and the accompanying recording, session design, pitch deck and activities have been made available for further use.<\/p>\n A second session explored what it means to be an active and supportive community member in an online space. This offering was delivered through an interactive conversation and produced an artefact that outlines practical behaviours, expectations, and tools that help strengthen participation. The session recording is available to CoLab members through the CoLab YouTube channel, along with resources that can be adapted for future onboarding or orientation processes.<\/p>\n The Network Weaving Practices session brought together experienced network weavers from across our wider networks. They shared practical insights on how to cultivate strong, resilient communities and how to support people to connect around shared purpose. The session generated useful reflections and artefacts that are now accessible to members and guests. A recording of the session is also available on the CoLab YouTube channel.<\/p>\n The final offering of the year was the Introduction to Permaculture course. This was our largest offering to date with comprehensive sessions offered over 3 days plus activities for attendees to track at home. This course went through a peer review process and was formally badges through the CoLab in collaboration with iCAAFS Open Badges. The cohort included a wide range of learners, including a young participant working with parental support, demonstrating the accessibility of the material. All course materials and recordings have been published for reuse, and a new cohort is planned for January.<\/p>\n As the project closes its current cycle, a substantial body of curriculum, recordings, and facilitation tools is now in place. These resources can be used to expand learning opportunities within the CoLab and adapted for other communities. The facilitation team is open to consulting, co-designing new tailor-made programmes, and delivering these sessions more widely.
