In Fall 2021, Naomi Joy Smith and Aimee Fenech assembled a team including
Cândida Shinn, Maria Prieto and Annaïk Le Net. Bringing representation from the
International Permaculture Convergence Council (IPCC), IPC14 team, IPC13
team, the International Permaculture CoLab and a former member of
International Permaculture Research Network (PIRN), we conducted this first
phase of research with the intention of reaching out to organisers from the worldwide
permaculture community, who have been involved with events across many scales
(local, bioregional, national, and international) and formats (in-person, online, and
blended).
The purpose of the Convergence Research Project was to learn about common
challenges and ethical solutions in the field, and to provide a place and catalyst to
share, discuss, and work on challenges as a worldwide movement, especially with
the rapid changes brought about by Covid-19 and the increasing digital revolution.
Particularly, Aimee and Naomi became motivated to explore opportunities to work
with online tools and more fairly distribute their creative and beneficial
possibilities, opportunities and practices.
The research team involves members who speak fluent English, Spanish, Galician,
French, Portuguese and Italian, so we were occasionally able to conduct interviews
in the interviewee’s native language.
