International Permaculture Convergence (IPC)

Anfitrión distinto en cada edición, con el International Permaculture Convergence Council (IPCC)

Rural life and depopulationNetwork meetingInternational

World gathering of the permaculture movement, itinerant since 1984 (Australia) and held every two or three years: Nepal, Cuba, the UK, India, Argentina and Taiwan have hosted it. It usually pairs an open conference with a multi-day convergence where practitioners run workshops and skill-shares. An international volunteer council provides continuity and picks the next host, aiming to rotate between regions. Tension: travel and registration costs weigh heavily on practitioners from low-income countries, although some editions offer reduced rates.
