Permaculture Economics – Beyond Circular Economy

WEBINAR WITH CERTIFICATE

In this webinar we will give you an introduction to the latest trends in the “new economics”, with a focus on “Circular Economy”, which is gaining in popularity across Europe and the West.

Permaculture design (also known as ecological design) is a discipline focusing on sustainability in all aspects of human activity.
