The 10 Year Transition Experiment: Reflections and Lessons Learnt

Described by David Holmgren as one of the "great achievers of permaculture activism" Rob Hopkins is a former permaculture teacher and co-founder of the Transition movement. In this talk, he will reflect on the relationship between permaculture and Transition, and what both can teach us about how to scale up our impact and influence at a time that desperately needs that. You'll hear how Transition is reimagining and rebuilding our world, with permaculture principles very much at its heart.
