Vision
The Permaculture Convergence Project is a celebration of all the different permaculture convergences around the world with opportunities for convergence organisers to learn from their experiences.
Here we capture the history of permaculture convergences world wide as well as provide support to convergence organisers in the form of digital tools, branding and marketing services, funding and grant writing services and consultation services to help you be as successful as possible in furthering permaculture into the world.
