We track the changes with students as a result of the course and also the impact they have in the world – in terms of changed behavior and the work they do in the green economy. 

The programs blends personal development support with technical permaculture training with low-cost resilience techniques, and equips individuals with hard and soft skills that promote greater levels of self-knowledge and behaviour change.
