Permaculture workshop about sharing knowledge & experience

-

What you organized, when, where and for how many people?
We oranized a permaculture workshop about sharing knowledge and experience and go through the permaculture design process in a group and was facilitating to design a veggie garden together. It was held in Etyeki Szatyor headquarters for 15 people in the town of Etyek on the 16th of January, 2019. 

What were the main goals and objectives of the activity?
The main goal was to get on a common platform about the basics of permaculture, what is it, why is it good, what are the main steps in the design process etc. in a frame of a mutual interactive group sharing activity. As I have some design and hands on experience I was the facilitator. Then we designed the veggie garden together which will provide seasonal vegetables and food crops for the events, visitors and volunteers during the season, made a layout of it on paper then the workshop followed by a presentation by me about my previous permaculture design work and we watched 3 short movies about permaculture then closed the whole event with a circle talk. 

What were the main outcomes and results of the activity?
We have designed the veggie garden and the participants said they had many new ideas and inspirations, also they have a more clear understanding about permaculture and its design.

Are there any other relevant aspects related to the activity, a conclusion or future plan?
Later I go back to meet to volunteers and possibly the other participants to start the veggie garden and share more ideas and maybe do another workshop.

Location: Etyek, 2091 Magyarország

What you organized, when, where and for how many people? We planned to organize a local swapshop and charity-bank kind of activity in our home town, Pécs. We started with a meetup for some likeminded people (an informal group called Pécsi Zöld Fórum) in May where about 20 people showed up and exchanged ideas in open space. 2 ideas came out as favourites, one of them the swapshop activity, which was then discussed in a smaller group, facilitated by me. What were the main goals and objectives of the activity? Providing a platform for like-minded locals to give away or swap surplus goods (from used household items to hand-made things or homestead products) where your time and skills can also be offered in exchange for items. The activity helps waste-reduction by reusing and shows a positive example of how to control consumption. What were the main outcomes and results of the activity? The small group came up with interesting ideas, we actually started swapping in th

What you organized, when, where and for how many people? I facilitated the Critical Mass Oviedo (June). This activity takes place every month, coinciding with the critical mass worldwide. Also, apart from the bike ride through the city, a documentary about the first Critical Mass was screened. It was held on Friday, June 1, in Oviedo and approximately 20 people attended.  What were the main goals and objectives of the activity? Since its inception, the purpose of the critical mass is to publicize the great advantages a greater presence of bicycles can bring in cities to mobility, society and the individual, to reduce the nuisance caused by motorized traffic: noise, pollution, traffic jams, insecurity. The idea was to raise awareness that those of us who travel by bicycle do not block traffic, we are traffic.  What were the main outcomes and results of the activity? The activity was very positive. After the documentary, there was a debate about what it means to be a cycli
