A Regenerative Design Pioneer in México

By Holger Hieronimi, Abril 2010 published in Linea Clave Mexico.

We can celebrate the first book published in Mexico since 1998, which makes direct reference to the concept of permaculture! So far, the collection of Alejandra Caballero (1) stands as the only title that incorporates the experiences at home. COAS now gives us this new publication entitled "Soil and Water Harvesting - Design with Permaculture and Keyline.

Its author is Eugene Gras, a pioneer of organic agriculture in Mexico and regenerative design. In summer 1995, Eugenio connected me with some of the first facilitators who at that time taught permaculture courses in the country (2). Shortly after he left for Australia, in order to deepen their knowledge (although there were few teachers and designers with

Green Building & the Permaculture Master Plan in Chile 

El Manzano sets out to build a campus of the great reskilling, implementing a permaculture master plan, and a summer of bioconstruction. So ends a cycle of change, and another cycle begins.

Since 2009 we have been working on the plans to make El Manzano a world class centre for sustainable education that equips people with the values, knowledge and skills needed to make the transition from an unsustainable growth culture to resilient human communities. As we begin to attract more and more visitors students and interns our facilities are often found to be lacking, and not of a quality befitting a green campus.
