Subject: [External] [northeasternpermaculture] We need YOUR input to grow permaculture.
For those who've earned a Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC), you understand what a life changing experience this course is.
The principles, the patterns, the practices, the strategies - and the feeling that you've found something worth building a life around or from.
For most PDC grads, what comes next is at best a choose-your-own-adventure, and at worst, feeling lost in the churn. The gap between a PDC and a viable permaculture livelihood is as wide, varied and challenging as the different contexts we apply to permaculture. It just hasn't been properly studied - until now.
We're partnering with the Global Professional Permaculture Pathways Survey, sponsored by Utah State University and led by Roslynn Brain McCann, Jason Gerhardt, and Javan K. Bernakevitch.
The survey is 8-10 minutes, anonymous, and your answers directly shape how, where, why, and when the movement supports PDC graduates in applying permaculture professionally.
If you've taken a PDC, you're eligible to participate. Please fill it out and share it widely.
Take the survey here - https://usu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bqE0hKYXsobAG7I
The survey runs May 6 - July 6. Early responses make the research stronger.
Thank you.
