The engagement program aims at engaging adults for participating actively in modern society in a lifelong perspective, such as critical thinking, civic and environmental awareness, food autonomy, learning for healthy lifestyles and adaptation techniques to climate change. 

The engagement program is composed of a suite of micro-trainings, that integrate informal learning activities with social networking, in close proximity to the gardening setting.

For who?

Adult educators, organizations, teachers, facilitators, change makers… And anyone interested in spreading the values of Social Permaculture in their community.

Objective:

3. Ends with a feedback session and transfer strategy which promote critical thinking and reflection on work, to facilitate deeper learning and evaluation of outcomes.
