Tuwa Laughing Fish is a beautiful ecovillage focusing on sustainable practices in the Philippians. We highly recommend attending their course, for the area is amazing and they have a PowerPallet.

3.     Harness skills to design and develop integrated Ecovillage design experiences for start-up or retrofit communities and/or developments in urban or rural areas.

4.     Gain a deep understanding of the holistic approach to community resettlement and sustainable rehabilitation after disasters on a bioregional level, especially considering variations in climate, peak oil, and economic decline challenges.

5.     Use a design pedagogy based on holistic observation and permaculture principles.  

6.     Hone their communication, group decision-making and conflict management skills to provide a strong experience of community-building and commitment.
