Village Development Program 3

This next Village Development Program (VDP) will be a week long intensive retreat at the beautiful Paradise One in the Byron hinterland. The week intensive will provide a rich environment in which to cultivate a depth of community and can offer a much needed retreat away from the demands and pressures of everyday life.

We are lucky to have international facilitator Robin Clayfield join us for one of the days with her depth of expereince on working with Dynamic Groups and Governance and intentional community. We also have community founder Carol Perry, Permaculture teacher Bunya Halzaz, NVC facilitator Jana Krins, Communatrian Prema Browne , Natural Building teacher Dani Wolf, Bruns Ecovillages Lawyer Wroth Wall and others facilitaing aspects needed in the program that includes cirriculum from the international Ecovillage Design Education (EDE) developed by the Global Ecovillage Network.
